    Hi,
    I'm looking a getting a notebook computer and am curious about how the mobile AMD processors (don't know much about them) compare to intel's pentium M in battery life and overall performance. Thanks,
    Matt

    i have tested the pentium myself, and it works fine, everything i need it to,, my freind uses AMD, and the to compaired,, pretty much identical,, the only thing with the AMD is it gets really hot,, but i dont know if thats just the fan deals or not.. so i hope this helps a atleast a little bit.

    Hi I agree With Liez4love

    AMD is good in both notebook and pc its just phiscally hotter CPU

    I personally have an intel centrino laptop which is awsome

    with AMD it may loop because of heat

    I haven't heard much about about the mobile athlon, but I know I read on tomshardwareguide that a pentium M is a better processor than P4, and can perform on par with Athlon64FX. He overclocked one in a desktop system to 2.5Ghz (on stock 1.4v) and it was very close to athlon64 FX-55 preformance. Check out the article, click on CPUs up top then go to death of pentium 4 or something.
