What is the differene between Conroe and Yonah?

FSB, Cache, and 64-Bit support....

Anything else?
 
the entire architecture?

Yonah is just like any other Pentium M chip, meaning it's a heavily modified P6 architecture (started with the Pentium pro, up through pentium 3). They're an interesting hybrid of P6 with some of the finer points of Netburst (namely the micro-op decoding and the quad-pumped bus).

Conroe (and the next mobile chip, Merom (sp?)) are based off intel's yet-unreleased Core architecture. The changes are pretty drastic: 4-issue instead of 3-issue, single cycle SSE dispatch, vastly improved SSE support in pretty much every way, etc.

I thought Yonah was some form of core
I mean it is called Core Duo/Solo

Well Yonah uses the Core brand name but is still based on Pentium M technology.
 
Yonah is also the first shared cache arch. which makes it a hybred when comparying to a dothan single core. In this respect it is the same as merom.

yeah that's a good point. Yonah shares one thing with core, and that's the unified cache. But the real "heart" of core won't be around until merom.

And Memron looks like it will be a drop in replacement for Yonah.
