For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.When referencing to the Laptops' processor chances are that they are desciribing the Intel 'M' version which has been specifically designed for Mobile computing.. Intel branded Celeron, Pentium 4 and Centrino all have an 'M' Series Chip..
In this respect the 'M' series have speeds such as 1.4, 1.8 etc.. but if you were to benchmark them against an equivalent 3.0GHz desktop P4 Northwood or Prescott Chip you would expect similar results..
Thats the reason for the difference.. in simple terms anyway!!
