AMD Turion or Centrino??

[kumars]

I need to know which is a better processor. AMD Turion/Turion64 or Centrino Solo/Duo??

Also let me know which is a best laptop in the price range of 45-50k??

 

[Venom]

Dualcore for sure!

If you can hold off your notebook buying decision, then wait for the Merom chips to be adopted by the companies. Currently there is Pentium M, Core Duo and AMD's Turion. I don't think you should go in for the Turion, the centrino is a much more stable platform.

Solo/Duo depends on what apps you are using but choose Duo over Solo if you have some extra cash cause Windows Vista would definitely benefit from the extra core.
