Laptop query?

[astraman]

I was looking at two laptops today and was confused with the processor types.One was on a sony n series an intel core duo t2350processor 1.86 ghz and the other on a packard bell being a AMD turion 64x2 dual core tl-50 1.6ghz.The sony is �640 and the packard bell �600.Any advice from anyone which would be the best buy as i am not familiar with what these processors do.Cheers

Both will do what you want well probably, but for general usage the core duo may edge it.

The turion is 64-bit, but Windows doesn't really take advantage of this so it's useless unless you use a 64-bit operating system (yes, I know there is a 64-bit version of windows, but most don't use it).
