    which laptop? P3 750mhz vs Duron 1ghz

    k, found 2 laptops in the same price...

    1) Sony P3 750Mhz 256meg ram

    or

    2) Compaq Duron 1ghz 384meg ram

    don't really remember any other specs

    tempted to go with the Sony because they seem to build a better laptop...

    I have not heard much of the Compaq laptop, but an NOT a fan of their desktops...

    performance wise which do you think will perform better? will be running Win2k Pro... combination of business apps and a few games
    Celeron 700@850
    3dfx Voodoo 3 3000 166@185
    256mb ram
    30gig + 13.5gig
    MSI ProMaster 266

    As far as performance the Compaq with the Duron would be better, but Sony makes an awesome laptop, usually alot smaller and lighter and get great performance.

    Personally I would go with the Sony...but thats mine opinion

    Sony got the style
    But I really love Presario series of Compaq, although I think they put Intel inside
    Anyway, I'd choose 1GHz Duron over 750MHz Pentium III, not talking that Duron goes with more memory
    So what they run much hotter ?!

    I'd go with the Duran and the higher memory. Performance should be better. Don't know about the other components that are put into the laptop. Check out as much as you can about the internals.

    What about HD and video card? How do those specs compare?

    I would go with the Duron myself.
