They're about the same performance wise. The TL-58 and T5250 perform about
the same even though the TL-58 is 400Mhz faster. The Intel Core 2 Duo T5250
is more efficient. The graphics cards are about the same as well,
productivity cards and not for 3D games although they will poorly run some
at low framerates. My choice would likely be the Intel one for $100 more.
But $100 saved is $100 to spend on other toys, so it's a tossup.

I personally would go with the Intel Centrino because its more power
efficient and does not run hot. My AMD Turion 64 X2 is like like a frying
pan, I can't stand it one bit.
