Dell's ripping people off
I ordered Inspiron E1505 Intel® Core™ Duo processor T2300 (2MB Cache/1.66GHz/667MHz FSB)
KD16HN
[222-1326] From Dell, yet I received:
1 NJ745 PROCESSOR, 80539, YONAH, T2300E, 1.66, 2M
Check your systems, Dell might be sending out more systems with the incorrect parts installed.

What's the difference? Just Vanderpool? Dell has had occassional typos like this before, most recently that I can remember on FSB speeds. As the 'E' is newer, I'd say they just forgot to update their order page.

I believe Virtualization Technology will allow one to run more than one OS simultaneously whereas the T2300E lacks VT and is only able to run one OS of a dual boot machine at a time. Some literature indicates the 2300 has 1MB cache per core whereas the T2300E has a single 2MB cache that is shared between the cores similar to the upcoming Core 2 Duo architecture.

In this case, simply contact Dell and tell them what your findings are.
I'm sure they'd be happy to replace your laptop / processor with the proper hardware.
Don't say they're ripping people off, if you're intelligent enough to actually know what the difference is then contact them and I'm sure they'll replace it.
