It seems like a very good deal but how much hotter can a desktop core 2 duo be in comparison with a laptop one? is there really much difference?

The desktop will be considerably cheaper.

But does it produce more heat than a laptop one? if yes, how much?

It wouldn't necessarily generate more heat, the heat just wouldn't dissipate as well.

i think they make laptop CPU's different for laptops and desktop computers for a reason, so my guess is that unless you can get some extra cooling for the CPU then you might have some problems.

It do has extra cooling for the CPU but i don't see it as a problem since the laptop is slim.

Here's a picture:
