Hi List,
Looking at IBM laptops I see the following..for processors..
Intel p4 .. various speeds. celerion .. various speeds. centrino .. various speeds.
The centrino seem to be the slower one than the other two.
Do not mind price .. hardware .. trying to find what would be best in long run between the 3 processors.
Kindly some pointers and suggestions to IBM laptops .. please.
OK - it's not what you asked but - why IBM? There are many, much "better" laptops out there, unless you're restricted by purchasing policy at work ,for example.

IBM notebooks tend to be well supported in Linux. For example, I'm typing this message on a ThinkPad R31, using wireless to my home network, while sitting out on my balcony and drinking a beer. The wireless, modem and everything else I use works fine with SuSE 9.1, right out of the box. I didn't have to download any drivers for any hardware.
