Yeah, it's worth 500 bucks. If I were you, I'd go for a newer Core 2 processor from intel.
I think you are referring to a Turion, and AMD Turion processors aren't really all that great, compared to intel's offerings today. I'd go with intel. Period.

Well you are considering 64x machine, instead of 32-bit, so now you have to consider Intel Itanium, not Pentium processors. You're probably looking for Intel Itanium 2 Dual Core.

I'm not up to snuff on AMD notebook processors, but whatever it is, it is definitely worth $500.
