Now the processor does effect how it processes the data coming in and going out.

Now with that comes page load times that you are viewing on your desktop, which by todays standards any dual core should load up the page fast after it's received the data from the network. What comes in effect is how efficient your browser uses your CPU to do this. Future browsers (HTML5) are going to have the CPU and GPU working together to process pages which should further the speed in which page loads AFTER it receives all the data from the network.

you have a 2 1/2 year old gateway but you didn't state what your running on it? and you have to take in effect what quality your webcam/microphone is and what bit rate you are sending and receiving through skype.

So to say that your example was the perfect example is false.

But I'm not trying to step on your toes, start a fight, or anything. Just informing you and everyone else. just saying

The 360 the other hand has only had one online problem since I had it (since it came out) and that was game related (COD 4).

Now when talking about it only depends on network speed and not processor speed is not true. Its a combination. I have a 3 mouth old Macbook Pro with a 2.53 dual core processor and a 2 1/2 yr old Gateway without a dual core processor and believe me the processor plays a huge part in download speeds and page loads. A perfect example is both of them running skype on the same network doing a video call, the Mac running Windows 7 will run with no chop in speech and very little video lag if any at all. The Gateway on the other had may have a 3-7 sec video freeze, broken record effect when something being said gets stuck on repeat for a few secs before it clears up. And they both also have 4gb of ram installed and brand new hard drives that are only weeks apart.

Processing power is no longer an issue. On the nexus if i'm surfing 3g or i'm surfing wifi, there is a significant difference. So surfing on 4g will be significantly different then surfing on 3g. When watching youtubes to the speed of which pages load, you WILL NOTICE A DIFFERENCE.

Great, this helped me make up my mind. I'm getting the HD2. I've been trying to justify going with the Evo because of some of it's great features, but at the same time having to give up a lot of features by moving from WinMo. This seals the deal. I'm not going to use any more data on the Evo than I do on my TP2, so it's just adding on additional profit. Whenever I see one of those signs in a car dealership that say $399.00 DH and additional profit added on to every sale, I grab my wallet and run. Our govt. is trying to raise our taxes every time we turn around. What are we getting for that? Additional services and benefits? I don't think so. I can't leave the country, but I CAN leave Sprint. See ya' Dan.
