I went "build our own laptop" workshop at quakecon 2005 and It was great. I won intel WiFi a/b/g card on Saturday (aug 13th)

Now I really want to build a laptop now.
I can't really find comparison between Pentium M and AMD Turion 64. I read few sites that Turion 64 perform better and have same battery life.

does anyone know this for sure or show me a review online?

I know Intel Yonah and rumor of AMD dual core Opteron mobile CPU coming out really soon but my brother want a laptop and I want to build him one.
