    This is supposed to be relevant? Not sure what I was expecting, seeing as how you couldn't see any difference [youtube.com] between an SSD and an HDD either, but whatever. Actual raw data from your link, rather than the meaningless overall "score" you posted:

    In order: Geekbench 32-bit; 64-bit; overall. Passmark overall; single-threaded. Typical power consumption.

    E8400: 2862, 3092, 4792, 2172, 1257 (52.81W)
    5250U: 4964, 5591, 5591, 3658, 1519 (12.19W)

    Not that this means a damn thing, but the 5250U smokes the E8400 in every test while using less than a quarter of the power. Whatever, it's still a comparison between a passively-cooled ultra-low voltage CPU with onboard graphics and an actively-cooled desktop CPU, but don't let reality stop you being a moron, eh? (Pro-tip: mobile Core2 model IDs start with a T)
