[1] 2.2GHz

bottom line: phenom is (not phenom II, mind you), clock for clock, slower than C2Q.
get a fast dual core if you're into programming and gaming only. don't get a quad unless you render 3d, create hi-def movies. that way, you can have more GPU power for your games, or more RAM for your apps, or more HDD space for your files. if you really need to go quad, get a penryn(even a kentsfield) or a phenom II.
