Compaq nx9010, only getting 108 passmarks, even my p3-1ghz gets 200, cpu-z details attached... a desktop p4-3ghz gets 350+ and even a Dothan pentium-m s479pga 1.6 gets 400.

Clock for Clock the P3 and Dothan cores both outperform Pentium 4, but since your laptop is supposely at 3 ghz it definitely should do better then it is. .

I don't have a laptop p4 but so far as I can remember they were just notoriously bad at power management and even when power management was working well it wasn't a great performer. Maybe its being throttled somewhere and is not obvious?
