Laptop choices...

[AcemanPB]

Well I've been looking for laptops and I've narrowed it down between two different laptop choices, both being Sagers. Both are nearly identical except for the processor. One has a 2.0ghz Pentium 'M' chip while the other has a 3.2ghz Pentium IV w/ HT. Both laptops are the same size (15.4" widescreen) but the laptop with the M chip is a tad lighter and thinner. Both would be coming with a 256mb card and a gig of ram. I don't really play game much anymore on the computer but I'd be doing a lot of CAD work (ok and maybe a few games...). I'm just stuck on this decision. Anyone have experiece with similar models, or with Pentium's M chip? Is it really worth the sacrafice in performance?

There is no sacrifice in performance in most instances. In fact Intel realizes the pentium 4 architecture sucks and theyre ditching it completely in favor of pentium m. Only thing the pentum 4 has in its favor is that it can multi task a little bit better.
