Re: The laptop with the lowest idle power consumption is the one that will come out ahead in battery life for 95% of real-world situations. They were equal in that.

I hope you read the commentary on that, because the Intel based system managed to test equally in battery life in that test, in spite of having a smaller battery, and a more power hungry LCD.

When you look at the wattage figures, it normalizes the situation, and you see that Intel's 65nm mobile part is ahead in every metric, often by large amounts.
