Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"As someone who doesn't reside in the USA, I was wondering what would be the best way to get internet for my computer in the US for a couple of weeks? If it were Europe I know I'd look for some prepaid data. Is there anything similar offered by American carriers? A MiFi or a data SIM that I can tether from would work, but I'm trying to maintain a tight budget. Help!"
The machine is amazing. I am not experiencing any of the problems other vista users are having , then again the system is not online, I only update what I want downloading the files on another pc online. As for the quad core, yeah most games are not written for that spec , when the software does come out then it will be right for it. So the machines in 4 cores are quite expensive and what is the point most people ask, well if you thinking about only gaming then there will be no current games out there for 4 cores, but its not just gaming is it, what about other software, if gaming is all people do then they either have a lot of time on there hands of no partners. I use mine for everything, I have every title in the pc charts 2 years running all work out of this world apart from Broken sword 4 ( a typical example of why a game doe not work on multi core) sill really cause it will not work on a dual core either, when games manufactures design games they are aware of what's coming out os system wise yet they are working backwards making games in 2006-07 technology. This is the only title that will def not work so far on a multi core. I'm using adobe editing pro, running adobe photo shop, running soundforge sound editor and only running my machine at 1.2 gigs memory. This is where you see the benefits of multi core specially 4 , its the programs that need to use it comfortably. So before you ask yourself what is the point of quad core, think about are they making games for 700mb graphics cards yet, answer is no. You get great graphics top end which I have, but no game is written for 700mb yet, so before you ask for quad cores people want big graphics cards but no software is written for this power yet also. By time games are made for quad core, graphics cards will be 1000 GB games will be made for only half that so sometimes , well most times hardware is way way ahead of software.
