Lap Top CPU's ? Please

HI

Thanks for your time and help.

Looking at new lap tops and see that some of the Intel Core 2 Duo CPU's are from the desk top series.

What, if any difference or advantage do the "E" series offer over the "T" series in a lap top?

Specifically, say the E6400 vs T7200.

Best

E is the desktop chip, T is the laptop chip.

For the Core 2 Duo T series, there are 2 major "families" (not really what they're called, but I can't think of anything better).
T5xxx means they have slower clocks and 2MB caches.
T7xxx are faster and have 4 MB caches.
