    Much like Intel vPro that you have to buy 3 components... a Core processor + Intel chipset + Intel Gigabit LAN...

    So in your scenario... I can have an Intel Processor + ATI/Nvidia chipset + graphics + Intel Wireless and I will still do not get the Centrino badge even if I have the Intel Wireless Card
    Ah ganun ba depende siguro kung san mo purchase laptop. Kasi I have the Centrino sticker and my setup is just the Intel Chipset and Intel Wireless Card. My GPU is ATI. I bought my laptop at Dell online. As per notebookforums.com (not to date), Dell gives the sticker only when you purchase WITH the Intel Wireless. (when i bought my laptop, DELL only offers INTEL processors in all their lineup)
