I'm in the market for a new laptop and realistically speaking MS Pro 7 is the application I use to measure acceptable performance. Everything else I us runs fast enough on my current P3 1.2 laptop! Everything except MSP7 that is.
Although the P4-M scales to much higher clock speeds than the Pentium-M (centrino), Centrino based notebooks are cooler, smaller,and consume less power than their P4-M counterparts. In addition, the more efficient core and larger l2 cache of the Pentium-M may offset some of the P4-M's clockspeed advantage.
If you have either a P4-M or Pentium M I'd appreciate it if you'd run this MS Pro 7 benchmark located here:
Thanks,
Mark
