    I've been hearing about the new version of centrino for a while. So besides the new 802.11 n capabilities, what's the difference between the current Napa with Core 2 Duo and the upcoming Santa Rosa with Core 2 Duo?

    Is it worth the wait?

    I thought Santa Rosa was going to have 1000 Mhz FSB?
