    I am looking for a new laptop which will replace my old Toshiba Satellite. As I need a desktop replacement machine which would multitask my Photoshop and various office productivity applications I opted for Fujitsu N6010 after reading many good reviews and opinions about that machine.
    Now we have new Sonoma standard and I am thinking if I should change my selected model and pick up Fujitsu N3510 instead.
    I am not a gamer so I do not worry too much about graphic card on the new N3510 as I will be running only Photoshop, internet and office applications. I am more concerned about the speed of the new processor and its ability for multitasking.
    I wonder if experts on this forum can put some light on the speed of the new Sonoma components on N3510 against P4 3.2GHz H/T on N6010.
    Personally I could not find anywhere on net any direct comparison between P4 M 3.2GHz H/T processor and even "old" P4 M 1.7GHz Centrino.

    I wouldn't be bothered by the processor specs, they'll both do the job very well. Didn't you want the N6 for the large display? If so, that's still the reason to keep it.

    If you will be doing multitasking, the H/T processor of the N6 will give you a slight advantage over the Sonoma set. Multitasking is one of the advantages of Intel's Hyperthreading technology.

    Thanks Nesbo and Brian,
    ...I think I will go with N6010 as Sonoma doesn't give me any advantage over current H/T processor and the 17" display on this machine is great.
    Cheers
