Should I get a laptop with a Centrino processor?

Get the pentium M processor if you need the better battery life, the performance difference isn't tangible for applications you SHOULD be running on the laptop. If you're playing games, video encoding, etc. then it would be worth it, the only thing the Pentium M has going for it that the celeron does for most uses on a laptop is battery life.

Centrino is not at all a processor. If a laptop has a centrino sticker, it makes it certified to be a centrino laptop. I think it to be considered a centrino is that it has to have intel pro wireless, and a pentium M proccessor. So really its a pentium M.

our first serious answer! lol.

cr2250, this thread is actually a parody (sort of) of a previous thread where the OP of that one was crying really loudly about how he hates it when people say "centrino processor"...

How can you be confused? Were you dropped on your head as a child? Ingested arsenic? Lombotomy?
