Considering an iMac upgrade, and not sure if going for the i7 and Hyperthreading would be worth it for me. It probably won't but I figured I'd throw it out there.
My workflow is fairly basic, primarily word processing and browsing. I typically have 3 browser windows open with maybe 40 tabs total, and a slew of other basic apps open all the time. Nothing particularly processor intensive going on, and no large files that I'm really working with.
However, I do also always have a Windows 7 virtual machine (VMware Fusion) running at all times, which is the only place I feel like more power would help.
Probably a silly question and I'm sure it's dumb to even consider. Thoughts?
