    Intel Pentium 4 1.6Ghz Intel Atom 1.6Ghz

    Which is faster at typical tasks such as web surfing, document and spreadsheets?

    Assuming the same hardware specifications (memory, hard disk) on either computers. And both are running MS Windows XP.

    I am just wondering if I should upgrade an existing system (P4/1.6ghz) using an Atom based system or should I go Intel Pentium dual-core since the Atom based system is cheaper and uses less power.
