Calculators and computers are two different kettles of fish. A calc from the 90s can still add, a computer from the 90s isn't even good as a Facebook machine.

Because retards will buy them

Because there is who doesn't play games and work with 3D graphics/video montage. I mainly do programming and dual core is perfect for my needs.

>>
>>51516407
Isn't every mass-produced, publicly available laptop you can buy a consumer laptop?
>>
It's not like processor tech advanced significantly from 2009 to now.

Most consumers who buy those laptops won't even know the difference.
>>
>>51516201
are you expecting us to spoonfeed you everything? google it you fucking retard
>>
>>51514709
Because they still have a warehouse full of these processors that they need to get rid of.
>>
>>51516201
This is why you are stupid.
Intel makes new pentiums every generation.
>>
>>51514709
They're modern Pentiums.

Atom > Core M
Celeron > Pentium > Core i3 > Core i5 > Core i7
Xeon

Have you read the news? The latest pentium gained hyperthreading and mops the floor with older core i3s and sometimes i5s. Older pentiums usually have solid cpu performance and terrible graphics but they're much cheaper than i3s

Pic related the newest one (its even an energy saving one)
>>
>>51514709
The question is why do they cost 500$ instead of 199$
>>
"pentium" is a model line like a car model line. It may be the base economy line but it still gets updated like everything else.
>>
>>51515777
