The T4200 is a 2Ghz (1M cache) 800Mhz FSB 45nm cut down WolfDale CPU which burns at a nice 35Watts.

It has a higher IPC (Instructions per clock) than the 2.2Ghz Athlon CPU and is more power efficient ... si it is a bit faster despite running at a slightly lower clock speed.

If the laptops are comparable in options then the T4200 is a better choice all round.
