Athlon 64/Centrino NoteBook & Laptops

The Pentium M (Centrino Mobile Tech.) has great battery life & uses very low power. They are good Laptops, but to buy one right now is a waist of money in my Opinion.

The Athlon 64 Mobile is also an amazing choice, do to the future proof of the 64-Bit technology. I mean, when you buy a Laptop, you want it to last a long time, and the 64-Bit solution rings my bell.

AMD is working on a Athlon 64 Mobile chip which should match or beat Intel's Centrino line of CPU's.

We Shall See.

I also voted Athlon 64 Mobile laptop.

Cool.
I like the future proof Athlon 64 gives you.

in my opinion...the 64 all the way...but for the normal consumers...centrino is the only way to go...i work at circuit city....and it's so useless trying to explain 64-bit technology to the customers...some haven't even heard of AMD....so even if 64 is better...it's not going to take over the market until intel comes out with it, or amd gets some new ad campaigns going...

Why not type out a great detailed description about Athlon 64 & even give them a link to the AMD Website. Print several of them out, with mild colour(to not waist too much ink) & give them away.

But I know what you mean. Everybody tells me \"Is it a Intel Inside\"

Upsetting you know, hearing that all the time.

AMD needs to do a better job in teaching the industry about 64-Bit technology.

heh...like ppl will actually read it...we have plenty of brochures explaining stuff, but nobody actually looks at it or anything...SOME ppl follow consumer reports and just want like one of the top 3 rated or something.....

and btw...um isn't the amd 64 mobile already out??? we carry an Averatec and a Compaq that has them...i'm sold a handful of the compaq's, and a few Averatec's since ppl never heard of it before...lol

The very low power Athlon 64 mobile CPU's are coming out sometime in Q1 2005 I hear.

if they aren't out yet....then wut is http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Averatec-No...roductDetail.do

a link to an averatec we sell....i thought that was it?

It could very well be the new low power notebook from AMD.
AMD is moving all CPU's to S 939, including there mobile line.

I voted Intel.

Athlon 64 gets my vote, well a Turion. Is that included in the Athlon 64 part?

I too take on Turion 64 due to the fact that it's a faster chip & great on battery life.

Though for mainstream market, AMD does well, where as business market, the Pentium M does amazing.
