Hi,

i read that with the current kernel linux can't really use Intel I7 Super Boost and other new features. Apparently more support will come with Kernel 2.6.33, 10.04 Lucid Lynx will have 2.6.32.

I don't know much about hardware matters, a lot of the articles on the Internet confuse me.
My question:
Will kernel 2.6.33 and beyond be likely to support the Intel I7 Chips to it's full potential?
There are some nice 1000$ laptops available that have the i7 720QM Chip.
Thanks for your advice...
