    Question Someone knows the difference???????

    1.Notebooks: P4-notebooks with Mobile Intel-CPU's

    2.Sub-Notebooks: Notebooks with Standard Intel-CPU's and External Battery


    "what's exactly the difference between these two? I can buy from one of those 2 categories, but do not know the difference"?

    One thing I have read is that manufacturers were fitting standard P4 CPUs as opposed to Mobile versions because of cost savings.
    They stated the basic differences were that the mobile version throtled itself back when demand wained thus running cooler and improving battery life as opposed to the standard version which ran at the same constant speed and with the added caution that in an enclosed spaces such as a laptop where ventilation is at a premium,this may eventually cause problems with other components overheating or wearing out quicker because of this factor.

    I forgot to mention Intel are not too happy with the manufacturers for taking this course of action so long term I would`nt expect any support after your warrenty runs out if you get a standard CPU as opposed to the mobile version.
