Intel or AMD based Laptop?

[digit i am thinking]

I just finalised two laptops
Compaq Presario V3424AU
Compaq Presario V6406TU

specifications of Compaq Presario V3424AU
Processor type
AMD Turion™64 Processor MK-38 (2.2 GHz)
• 2.2 GHz, 512 KB Level 2 cache

the Compaq Presario V6406TU Notebook:
# Microprocessor: Intel Celeron-M 520 (EM64T)
Mobile Power Management
533 MHz Front-side Bus Speed
# Cache Memory: 1 MB Integrated L2 advanced transfer cache


Which one processor is good of these two AMD and INTEL?
or Rather which Laptop should i go for?

Turion is better than celeron, if it had been C2D frrom intel, the story wud have been different

[digit i am thinking]

I heard that Compaq Presario V3424AU has got problems with NVIDIA® GeForce™ Go 6150 is it true.
Also Can i able to install XP on it?

dude with 512 ram on vista is vry vryy slow ... so put 1 gb atlest

[nish_higher]

better get c2d man.1.7ghz will be good if u r on a budget.from these 2 turion is much better

dude dont get compaq at all i have like 5 different compaq products all which i am facing problems with i mean i dont own all just 1 buy my brothers and sister own the rest

[digit i am thinking]

The turion processor comes in Compaq Presario V3424AU which has Vista installed.But i don't want vista,i want XP or may be free dos.
So what shuld i do? Should I format it after buying and then install XP?

my personal experience go for Intel

[nishant_nms]

vista will run fine but no up to mark.
U may format and install XP if u will.
Overall the AMD offering is gr8 in the two

[digit i am thinking]

Compaq Presario V3424AU offers NVIDIA® GeForce™ Go 6150 Video adapter

While Compaq Presario V6406TU offers Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) 950

So which one is better?

[entrana]

the first one if u had to choose
