You have a point there. I have done some reading about the Intel
versions of their CPU's. If all is true what is written in the
WikiPedia, that only the "Intel Core 2 brand refers to CPUs with the
64-bit Core microarchitecture". All else is 32 Bit.
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Core#Yonah). 

"Intel 64 (Intel's x86-64 implementation) is not supported by Yonah",
(and all else before?). 

So only OpenSUSE 10.2 32 Bit works on these notebooks, but that x86_64
should only run on the Intel Core 2. Does it run OpenSUSE 10.2 X86_64?

Perhaps I should rather look at an AMD Athlon/Turon 64 X2 Mobile system
like the Inspiron 1501. Anyone got one running OpenSUSE 10.2 X86_64? 

:-)
