I've got a Core i3 and it works just fine. However Windows 10 is infuriating. my next laptop, if there is a next one, will not be Wintel.
I see the lines building at BB and Costco for their release, LOL
Epic PR fail, EPIC strategic fail as Moore's Law slips at intel and TSMC and Samsung match and then beat intel in the coming years, welcome to the world where the ARMy is the virtuous cycle!

Even gamers prioritize dollars towards upgrading the GPU before the CPU.
CPU = second class citizen.
Only a VERY narrow niche of people care to have the latest greatest CPU performance.
It's the bestest ever created. I will rush out and upgrade my Skylake laptop so I can run the lousy win 10 OS and experience problems 15% quicker :)
This disaster can be blamed exclusively on BK and Sohail for their failures to deliver a working 10nm product, even with billions of dollars of company backing.
ROFL yup I am all lined up to upgrade my whole family just so I can watch 4K.
Sorry very few people care much about performance on their PC except gamers. Windows runs very nicely on the 22nm CPUs. Gone are the days we rushed out for a CPU or PC with a little faster frequency. Gone are the days Intel stock doubled and people upgraded and more and more wanted not one but three PCs. For most they buy replacement and world economy is focused on phone in pocket with that upgrade far more important than a PC unless it broke. PC market will continue to sink to about 200 million about replacement level for the billion or so out there. Phones are another story.
You see Samsung/Apple toot cores or frequency, or any PC ad for that matter?
