E6600 or wait for Q6600

[HarrisonM]

Now wondering if i should wait and get Q6600 instead of E6600 with 44$ price difference. Is it worth waiting then buy quad core for $44 price difference or just stick with core 2 duo?

$44! Yeah, guy, wait. I don't think you'll regret it in a year from now

Yes it's definitely worth the $44 price difference. By getting quad core, you're future proofing your computer.

Of course it's worth the extra $44. But what do you mean by waiting for the Q6600? The price drops for the Q6600 have already occurred.

Waiting till he has the extra $44 is what I assumed.
