My last notebook was a Turion, now sold to a friend.
Equivilant Centrinos and Turions have negligible differences in performance. Turions pull ahead in some programs, fall behind in others. There's a bunch of other extremely minute differences that barely anyone will ever notice.
Centrino pulls way ahead due to customization and choice. There's like 10x as many Centrino notebook models out there, so finding your combination of power, portability and other needs is way easier. I can't stand the configuration in most Turion models to be honest
Notebooks and reliant on what the manufacturer puts together, you can't really "make your own notebook" which is what's killing Turion right now [Intel's political clout and name brand].
