Go for CENTRINO. The centrino package (mobile processor, wireless card, battery life) as a whole perform really well. They are made to work together to give the best performance and experience to user. It is not a eye wash or branding trick.

Hope it is useful for you.

Its actually a gimmik. Been in that field seen that. All wireless cards(chipsets actually) which are designed by good companies are tested with laptops from 25 different brands. There is remote possibility of your 802.11g card not working properly with some obscure laptop makers laptop, but with known brands is never an issue.

Infact thats what standards are for. If a card is 802.11g compilant or 802.11a compliant etc., it does not matter who made it or wether its external or internal, the data rates will almost be same.
