    I am thinking of purchasing a Toshiba Notebook (A215-S4757). However, I am not so sure about AMD. I will be using the laptop for Software Development. I was wondering if would face any trouble with this processor or should I simply go with Intel Centrino??

      There shouldn't be any major problems, but Intel's led AMD in the performance/watt metric for mobile chips for years. Not a problem if you're working plugged in, but it'll drain your battery faster while working mobilely.

        Do you think that AMD would be able to sell CPU's if there was ANY hint of incompatibility with Intel CPUs?
