Were you testing the speed with the computer plugged into AC power? Most laptops clock themselves down when running on batteries in order to conserve power and extend battery life.

I picked up a HP laptop for a friend of mine and his says the same thing, I figured they either throttle the CPU down or a mobile processor runs at a lower speed.
