Q6600. Nothing has come close to the staying power of that CPU.
One thing I didn't consider.... maybe form now on, *all* high end CPUs will have that kind of staying power... maybe the Q6600 was just the first of the "good enough" CPUs.
I mean, the i7-920 won't be out of date for desktop applications for another decade (at least!) I'd bet, same for the Sandy Bridges, Ivy Bridges, etc..... they will will easily have a 6+ year lifetime of being relatively unchallenged by software....
So yea, maybe the Q6600 just the first of many....
