Intel® coretm i3 processor advantages?

[howhigh20]

Hello,
What is so special about the Intel i3 Processor?
I'm not a computer whizz so take it easy on me!
I am comparing a Intel Celeron Dual-Core T3100
(1.9Ghz, 800Mhz, 1MB Cache) Laptop
to a Intel Core i3 330M Laptop.

I need the laptop for music production.

Anyone help?
Will I notice any great difference?

Actually yes, a major difference. The i3 has a much better architecture and hyperthreading. It also is 32nm, has hyperthreading (so the OS thinks it has 4 cores), and alright integrated graphics.
