Really?

I don't think so, you may have convinced yourself with your bullshit talk but this is beyond stupid

Another blantant lie!

FYI: Turion 64's heat tolerance is actually a lot lower than Pentium-M, e.g. 70 degrees Celcius vs. 100 degrees Celcius. This means that Pentium-M can be a hell of a lot hotter than Turion 64 without causing problems.

Because you're comparing apples to pears. Ever heard about power management in chipsets. Laptop Logic made a proper comparison where that wasn't the issue, take a look at that instead:

Yawn, give it a break, every other review has shown that the standard voltage Dothan and Yonah kill the Turion ML in power consumption, in the same manner that the A64 does to Prescott, and beat the low voltage Turion MT. If you can't accept that, fine, just as long as you don't put a Turion X2 laptop on your lap.
