AMD Turion(TM) X2 Ultra Dual-Core Mobile Processor ZM-84 (2.3GHz, L2 Cache) vs. Intel® Core™ 2 Duo T9300 (2.5GHz/800Mhz FSB/6MB cache). How do they compare? Is there a big difference?

The T9300 is a better processor.
"How do they compare?" The AMD processor would have to be clocked at around 3.0-3.1GHz to match the performance of that 2.5/800/6MB Core 2 Duo.

AMD Turion(TM) X2 Ultra Dual-Core Mobile Processor ZM-84 (2.3GHz, L2 Cache) vs. Intel® atom™ 1.6 GHz. How do they compare? Is there a big difference? Unfortunately, I bought a dell mini with the intel 1.6GHz and it is soooo slow. I love the size but that size does not come faster. I looked into a hp but it has the AMD processor. Will it be faster or just as slow? Do you have a suggestion. I do not want to spend $1000.

The Turion is much faster than the Atom...no comparison.

You already know how the Atom performs. The Turion X2 would be much, much faster.
