The bus is just 25 % faster – it's not likely that you're able to  
feel this slight change.

Wait for a portable with four cores with a memory interface as from  
an AMD CPU! Get ready to work at the same time with two or four  
virtualised operating systems to use the best multi-threaded software  
of all worlds! Checkout VMware Fusion and Parallels Desktop! (Leopard  
could be nice here, offering an easily reachable and dedicated  
desktop for each OS.) Learn GNU Emacs!


Bus and memory speeds are the bottlenecks. They won't widen, they  
stopped this years ago. So the use of multi-threaded software and  
large caches in a multi-processor environment promise acceleration.
