Im in the process of buying a notebook. I have the choice of these 2 processors. Bare in mind the P4 is more expensive by £200 could you please give your opinion on which is faster, more suitable, longer battery life etc...? I will be using the notebook for music editing, gaming, word processing, surfing the net and a wide range of multi tasking. I am using Window XP as my OS.

Cheers Andy

The core duo (wich is not a pentium 4) is, dual core. That means that it will perform better on a few applications, like multitasking and video/music encoding. Seeing as you want to do those things it'll be worth it to you. However £200 seems expensive, what notebook models exactly are you looking at?
