I'm running XP Pro and am wondering if its truly able to support the
Core funcionality of this processor. Is it XP or do the programs also
need to support the Core 2 Duo processor? I'm going from a 550mhz
processor 5 years old so was expecting a lot more speed from the core
2 duo.

I know what you're saying. A friend was given an old laptop several
months ago. I forgot the specs, but it was very "obsolete", something
even less than a PIII w 128M RAM, that kind of thing but it was very
zippy opening apps like Word and Excel 97.
