The only difference between the two is the processor that they use and the company that makes them AMD(anthlon) and Intel(pentium). Although the brand shouldn't make much of a difference when shopping for computers you should pay close attention to the hertz/gigahertz (processing speed) that the processors have which will determine the overall speed and capability of the computer. Expect computers to have any where from 1.00(painfully slow) to 5.00+ gigahertz(super computer) of processing power and for the price to go up accordingly.

The Intel Pentium M is a type of processor that is used in laptops. The M stands for mobile and the Pentium M is designed to use less power and generate less heat than a processor used in a desktop.
Pentium 2 computers were only marginally better than Pentium computers and were seen as good systems in their day. Nowadays, they are considered slow and there is not much use for them. None of them had multiple cores nor were they hyperthreading. You won't find a modern operating system that will run on them except maybe some Linux distribution.
No. The newer processor will not use the same motherboard.

So you can use the same devices for both.
Yes, there are some "no name" laptop brands that use desktop CPU-s onto their laptop motherboards. I have a laptop of "Vobis" manufacturer and I'm using Pentium 4 , 2.4 GHz, 533 MHz FSB desktop CPU in that machine.
I'm not sure what the pinout is, but you cannot use a laptop processor in a desktop application. Most laptop processors are designed to consume less voltage and produce less heat than there desktop cousins. Only very high-end laptops use desktop processors in them, such as www.alienware.com
Windows, MacOS, and Linux are the most common.
The latent function of laptop computers is their convenience which is slowly making desktop computers all but obsolete. Intended for travel, these small computers are easy to transport and use.
Information about top brands that manufacture personal desktop computers is readily available online. Dell, HP, Gateway, Apple, Acer, Sony and Asus are just a few of the brands that manufacture personal desktop computers.
The computers from Dell have an Inspiron 6000 memory. To be more precise, all notebooks and desktop computers from the Dell Inspiron line can use this memory.
