Upgrading a T60p

Hi guys, really stupid question, but why can't you just put a quad core Core 2 Duo?
Because Core 2 Quad only comes in a desktop packaged array (775 pins), and laptop motherboards only run 478 pins.bulgarian388 wrote:Hi guys, really stupid question, but why can't you just put a quad core Core 2 Duo?
It won't fit.
And this isn't even taking into consideration that there is no possible way to keep one of those cool with a TINY laptop heatsink and fan.
Quad core for laptops won't happen for AT LEAST another year (after Intel shrinks them on the upcoming 45nm process node).
