Hypocrisy haunts The Register's article.

Why is AMD being so coy?

"The answer is that the battery life isn't so good," Reynolds said, adding that Turion-powered systems could have up to one-third less battery life than laptops running on Intel's ultra low voltage products.


Excuse me? An article complaining about fairness, and the importance of apples-to-apples compares the battery life of Turion laptops to ULTRA LOW VOLTAGE P-Ms that run at 1.0 - 1.2 GHz with roughly half the performance???

The objection regarding performance comparisons using discrete vs. integrated graphics solutions was valid, but their own apples-to-oranges battery life comparisons are equally objectionable.
