Help me choose one of these notebooks Please !

by artbeat - 1/7/08 3:28 PM

The only differences are the price and the processor.

I'm a moderate home user with mostly uploading and downloading stuff.
other than text editors i use little bit of photoshop for photography purpose.

is it worth going for core2duo for the price difference

The Second One sounds better

If I were to choose, I would choose the second one. I mean it's only $100 difference. Might as well get a better laptop right?

The reason is simple. You can never upgrade the CPU later.
