turion, no doubt. The centrino is a slimmed down pentium. The turion is a full power processor, with no concessions. The only intel chip that can compare is the pentium M 770. |

I think you're getting confused with the Celeron processors, which are less-powerful versions of the Pentium processors. Centrino computeres use Pentium-M processors, and in fact the 770 is the latest Pentium-M chip used in Centrino laptops.

I too also have this dilema: choosing the CPU for my laptop, for music production of course. Thinking about getting one today, but don't really feel like getting compaq, hp or acer(with Turion CPU). I lean towards sony and toshiba but these have Centrino processors.
so which i should go with: Centrino or Turion???

dunno dude but, every minute i don't spend in the studio i loose precious musical ideas, so i guess i can't wait few months. I want to have something that will get the job done, and won't freeze up on me everytime i launch few instances of VST synths.
so in this aspect any recomendations wheather i should choose centrino or turion will be appreciated.
oh for the info, i will be running acid 5.0 pro and cubase sx3 on this mistery laptop  + albino, discovery, delta III, scorpion, synth 1 and some vst and dx plugins.
