Core 2 Duo and Centrino

Mmmm...just left a store having been told that Centrino and Core 2 Duo are two different chips. Certainly, NONE of their stock had both sticker.

My short-lived love affair with a Fugitsu / Seimans was on a machine proudly displaying both stickers. As I've mentioned before, it really was difficult to fault this machine.

When I went to Staples in the UK, the young man said Centrino shouldn't be confueed with the processor. Okay, thinks I, it must be a name for the chipset.

Here in Texas, the guy made the first statement. Both can't be right...can they?
