Depends what you want it for and/or how brutally you treat your notebook.
For me, that'd be more processing power than I'd need.... and, considering I give mine a 1-year life-expectancy, that'd probably easily outlast the life of the laptop.
I cheap out on laptops, as I just need a mobile computing presence, and not so much a mobile computing powerhouse.
Well, I'm no processor guy, but, since you're lacking another answer...
I think that's AMD's top mid-class mobile chip, if I'm not mistaken... so I think it'd pretty much suit most of your needs.... unless you wanna pay the extra for a Dual or Quad Core (Intel chips generally have a bit more cache on their chips, which I'm sure would be handy in repetitive applications like video encoding, and editing)... just make sure you get something that's compatible with a mobile graphical accelerator, and get that, as well... like the GeForce 8400M, which was only a $100 upgrade when last I checked.
