> If I had a Core Solo, I'd likely have dumped it.

I do note that there was never a Core Solo desktop CPU. There were handful of single-core Conroe Celerons released, but all main "Core" series parts were at least dual-core (i.e. Core 2 Duo or Core 2 Quad)



There was no Core Solo desktop CPU but the Core Solo did exist in Mobile Editions:

Thanks. I remember that the Core Solo was used on some Apple machines, including one of the first Intel Mac Minis (a pseudo-desktop machine?).

Correct. I had one. It sucked. But less than my XP machine.

I have the spiritual successor, the M1 mini now.


Pseudo is accurate. Mac minis have always been made with bits from the MacBook parts bin.


Mac mini core solo did exist [1]. My parents owned one.
