So without wireless and the display pretty dimmed down, we're looking at 6 hours? I'll wait for the official tests.
Just makes me want to get a MacBook Pro again...each update better then the other.
My question is what kind of difference would the L2 cache make (form 3 to 6 MB)?
Does it need a re-design? It is the sexiest laptop out there.

This "Penryn" or "Coppermine" junk is just code names for sometimes-trivial improvements in Intel CPUs. As the code names are followed only by CPU enthusiasts you won't ever see them on Apple marketing materials.
Dude, try learning what penryn (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Core_2) is.
