View Single Post - Why is the Q6700 so much more than the Q6600?

I went to the store today and the Q6600 was $219 and the Q6700 was over $400. Why is it twice as much? It's pretty much the same chip running at a few tenths quicker or is there something I'm missing? Anyhow I bought the Q6600....still happy as heck
