I purchased a laptop believing I have Intel Centrino inside it. When I turn on the laptop, I see Intel Pentium M processor and never see the word centrino. Am I a victim of hardware replacement? Please enlighten me. Thank you.

- Centrino from Intel provides built-in wireless support for laptop computers, making it possible to run a laptop all day (up to seven hours) without a battery recharge.
The Centrino package consists of:
The Pentium M processor
A specific Chipset Family
And a PRO/Wireless network connection.
I hope that clarifies things better.
Do your research!

I plan to make this easy for you.
Pentium is the big brother, while Centrino is the young brother.
In other words, Pentium is twice the price of Centrino.
Lastly, Pentium is much better than Centrino, much faster and more wanted,
