Sandy bridge in laptops

[movingtables]

New laptop time i think.
just waiting for a certain retailer to start shipping my preferred model with SandyBridge chips.
but should i wait?

I would only be interested if the new chips provided the following?

• They run much much much cooler
• they give you atleast 30 mins extra on battery
• they are much much much more efficient

looking to compare 1st gen i3 & i5's with sandybridge i3 & i5's.
would you wait ?

I think the sandy bridge will consume about the same energy due to the higher Graphics Frequency.

You'd be better off with a laptop with a SSD.
