cooling...
I've preferred AMD over Intel for a while now -- but the one thing you *really* need to be aware of is the heat difference.
AMD runs about 30C hotter than an Intel, and most well built machines will have a larger, stronger cooling fan for an AMD. This fan, in turn, will likely require more battery power.
I haven't heard any negatives about an AMD laptop, but I'd make sure to do the research before buying one; make sure that the cooling system is adequate for both the chip and whatever surface happens to be under the laptop.
