Hi,

Is there any other differences except speed and price between Intel T5600 and T5500?

T5500 is also missing Intel Virtualization Technology, but does it matters for a notebook?

I intend to get one for MSI S262 nb barebone.
I'd prefer the cheaper T5500 if there isn't any other serious drawbacks, I guess T5500 draws less power too.

Buy what you like.

But if it is for a business application make sure that you get one loaded with XP as Vista isn't as yet ready for deployment into a business environment unless you have masses of money to loose in lost production because the software that you want to use will not work on the OS.

If you really [b]Must Have Vista[/b] you want the [b]Ultimate Version[/b] and not the [b]Home Premium[/b] as it just lacks way too much of the necessary parts of Vista. But if you go this way be prepared not to get much in the way of support as currently there is no one supporting it to the same level as XP is supported.

Otherwise it's your decision.
