I have benchmarked a Dell Inspiron 640m with a 2.0GHz Core2Duo with 2GB of RAM against a Dell Latitude D610 with a 2.0GHz Pentium M with 2GB of RAM, using the same performing hard drive (as the D610 uses PATA, and the 640m uses SATA, I had to settle for 'same performance' and not 'identical drives') with the exact same OS (I literally cloned the 100GB drive in the D610 to a 100GB in the 640m and ran the same image) and found minimal performance differences in terms of responsiveness in normal use, doing one thing at a time.  It's only when doing multiple things, or doing multithreaded things, that the Core2Duo pulls away.

YMMV.
