There are some Athlons just for laptops. Example- AMD Athlon 64 X2 TK-53. Actually it is a high performance variant of Turion.
You'll get higher battery life than standard Athlons in case of Turions. Less heat means cooler laptop. Cooler laptop means increased machine life.
Performance wise Athlons will perform better.
