Hi,
I'm a little confused about laptop speeds....
Generally, desktop processor speeds are easy to understand, a 3Ghz P4
processor, is faster than a 2.4Ghz processor....etc, etc.
But there are so many laptop processors, that it's difficult to equate them
to desktop processor speeds.
For example, is a PENTIUM M 725 1.6Ghz processor, the equivalent of only a
1.6Ghz desktop processor, or do the two not equate?
And what about a CELERON M 370 1.5Ghz?
I'd like a laptop for post processing digital images, but would be concerned
that it
wouldn't be as fast as a desktop machine?
Si.
