Pro Tools - Pentium M or Centrino?

So far i've read of nice DaveC results with Centrino systems - 32+16
The laptop i have in mind is NOT a Centrino - due to a 3rd party wireless 11b/g card.
The manufacturer has decided to include the 11g standard. I know that the Centrino's wireless is only 11b.

My question is...

Will my pentium M system get the same DaveC results as those reported by the Centrino?

What other disadvantages are ther between a PM and Centrino system?

Want to be sure before i purchase the laptop.

First off, Centrino is not a proccessor class, it's just intels branding label for integrated technologies for laptops, it really has no significance when talking about a mobile recording rig. Just make sure whatever laptop you get has a Pentium M and not a Celeron M.

ok...so you're saying that as long it's a PM processor, i'm safe?

What about the chipset for the firewire port?
Any particular chipset works? VIA? Texas Instruments?
