Laptop choice based on processor

[tyller]

Hi,

I ponder buying a laptop and insofar I've narrowed down my choices to 2 notebooks. They're similar in price, features etc., the sole difference between them being their processors.

Which processor is 'better': Intel Pentium Dual-Core B960 or Intel Core i3 380m?

I will mainly use the notebook for office work, so I want the one with a higher battery life. Is the B960 better in terms of battery life?

i3-380m is faster. Battery life would be the same since they are both 35w CPU.
