With the built-in cpu throttling as well as other agressive power-saving mechanisms, the chip runs relatively cool and the battery life they provide can only be dreamed of by PowerBook G4 owners. I own a Thinkpad T41 with a Pentium M and it runs quite nicely. I prefer my Powerbook G4 for obvious reasons, but give me a Powerbook with a Pentium M cpu and I'll be in heaven...
