Mani - RE: "Do all notebooks based on AMD use the more expensive "mobile" version or is that a practices by only tier one OEM's. How can one tell?"

Compaq uses the K6-2 "P". We know Compaq does because there was an article which stated Compaq listed the chip on their website as the mobile chip, but it was really the desktop chip made in notebook format.

I don't know for sure, but I think Toshiba uses the actual mobile chip.
