  what's the diff between centrino & pentium ? Like let's say centrino speed is 1.4GHz that's means how fast compared to pentium 2.8GHz ? if centrino 1.4GHz really is like pentium 1.4GHz then it's quite slow liao

  you see hor, centrino is like modern zha boh, can bring around, connect with every other guys and let em steam from the heat, but it will keep its cool but brain abit slow la. and pentium is the heavyweight traditional zha boh, heavy and weighty but rams like a bull at home, turn off the lights, no diff la.
  
  most importantly, y the hell is tis topic in bar? very hard to answer.

  centrino is for laptops
  something like built-in wireless...means no need PCMCIA card or USB adapter....can directly search for wireless connections and connect

  First and most important thing to note, Centrino is NOT a processor, don't get it mixed up. Centrino is a technology based on three important features, that is the intel Pentium M processor, integrated wireless networking, and intel 855 Chipset.
  
  The main aim of a Centrino laptop is to achieve true ease of mobility. Lower clockspeed translates to less heat and less energy consumption, which means longer battery life, quieter, cooler, smaller, and lighter laptop. Integrated wireless brings convenience to wireless networking whereever you are, whenever you need it. Not sure what the 855 chipset does, but it is also a very important feature of a Centrino. Without any of these 3, the laptop won't be a Centrino.
  
  To make up for lower clock speed, Intel Pentium M Processor has larger L2 cache, that is 1mb of it. Newer 'Dothan' Pentium M processor has 2mb of L2 cache. Don't underestimate this L2 cache, because its what makes a 1.4Ghz Centrino performs on par with P4 2.8.
  
  All these prove that clock speed isn't everything, so when getting a desktop, get Athlon instead!
  
  Btw, why is this in bar?
