Centrino 2 is Intel's term for a performance set of Wireless, Processing and Battery Life, a laptop's best friend. Core 2 Duo(Quad/Extreme/Royale with Chesse) is a processor, a component of the Centrino 2 performance set of features and benefits. I hope this helped.

no centrino is not fast as core 2 also because the centrino generation did not take into consideration the core power and speed!!so if must choos between them surely a core 2 processor is better as perfromances than centrino one!!

Core 2 duo is an advancement from core duo processor. and core 2 duo is type from centrino model. a slower model is celeron, which only have single core processor. at the beginning of multicore raise, intel celeron is positioned as a replacement for pentium 4, which now has retired. a dual core processor is absolutely faster than a single core one.

Intel based processor are known for best possible normal activity. on the other hand, AMD provide processor with the ability to hold harder burden. for using normally, you can go for intel centrino one, though i myself use AMD Turion X2.
