Definitely the Celeron M410. It's not only a tad faster than the P4m
2.2GHz (it's around as fast as a P4 2.33GHz), it also has the faster bus
interface (533MHz against the 400MHz of the P4m) and the faster memory
(DDR2 compared to DDR of the P4m notebook).
And the Celeron M needs way less power than the thirsty P4M...
