Is anyone familiar with Intel's Atom cpu's?

I just read a review of the new Vaio P which said that the Z530 is better than the N450.

Just wondering if anyone knows a little about this. Thanks!

they are basically the same thing but the Z530 uses less power meaning less heat and more battery life. but ya the Z530 is better to answer your question

Well, let me add some detail.
When we pulled up a 720p YouTube vid of Justin Bieber on The Late Show it played rather smoothly with only a few pauses here and there -- obviously that's something an Intel Atom N450 powered netbook cannot do.
