    I have a e1705 with a T2500 (2.0) processor and have a 'Intel Centrino Duo" sticker. All the other stickers I have seen say "Core Duo Inside"

    Is there a difference between the two, or did they just recently change the marks?

    Core Duo and Centrino Duo do not have different CPUs - they only difference is that your notebook was sold with an Intel WiFi card whereas the other (Intel Core Duo Inside) stickers were sold without an Intel WiFi card.

    Okay just making sure.

    I have to diagnose some kind of problem I ran into this morning. I was running speedy lastnight, boot up this morning and it takes 5 minutes, high cpu usage and other weird quicks.
