I am about to buy a laptop. The main purposes for this laptop will be surfing the net, email, minor work, movies, games and streaming. When the laptop is at my home it will always be plugged in. When I take it on the road it will almost always be plugged in. I am try to find the best processor for this. I want something that is fast. Which processor would you recommend, from reading these forums it sound like pentium 4, pentium m, or amd athlon 64? Please help me decide.

 
lol .. this is the third time you have posted this question .. harsh .. and the second time that i have been the first to reply 😀, consider this a frre bump 😉
 
Pentium M is the way to go for laptops. What's your budget? Do you care if it's heavy? Do you want a more portable laptop? Do you play high-end games?

Ok a Pentium M, would be the best option to go with as it offeres amazing performance for lower power usuage (therefore longer battery life), i would recommned the Dothan 2 so they call it, basically it is a normal Dothan but it is accompanied with the new chipset (not sure which one), and this features PCI-e and also DDR2, and also better WiFi technologies, you mention that you will have it plugged into a power supply most of the time, maybe an Athlon64 or pentium 4 could be a good option as power would not be a problem, as the new chips (Dothan) are geared towards lower power usage ..

i particularly like the Sony FS series

But yeah dothan is the way to go, you do not have to worry about power usage against performance as the dothan excels over all in this feild
