Im looking for a good Centrino notebook for school. Im an avid gamer, and expected to get a mobile Intel Pentium 4, but the Centrino notebooks managed to do surprisingly well considaring their speeds, and have a much longer battery life. I was wondering if anyone knew of a good Centrino notebook. A 1.4 GHz Pentium - M processor is a minimum (The fastest Pentium M is 1.7 GHz), and the laptop needs to have a good screen. I was thinking about a Dell Latitude D800 with a PentiumŪ M Processor 1.7 GHzand 15.4 WUXGA Display.

Anyone know of a good, fast Centrino notebook?

Hi,

The Toshiba Tecra is a very good choice for you.
Much better than the Dell IMHO. I like mine a Lot.

stick with dell..

Don't go with either of them. Gigabyte (that's right, the motherboard company) makes custom-order laptops, and I'm sure socket 478 (the socket Centrino uses) is one of their options. It'll be cheaper than Dell or Toshiba, but reliable and should be well documented.
