Now we have Core 2 vs. Core 2 Duo.Back in the day buying a processor was as simple as looking at the megahertz or gigahertz and purchasing based on the bigger number.

How do you take a quick picture of your screen? You can use download shareware programs that have a lot of capability but what if you just want to capture the current screen or better yet the current open window?You just tap the PrtScn(print screen) button.
