Default Laptops choice Gateway vs Acer!

Hi,
I am looking for a new laptop. I have come down to these two choices. Here is the link to the actual site. They are the top two in the list. Neglecting that one has Windows 7 pre-installed, which one of the two would you recommend buying?

VS
Gateway 14" Intel Pentium T4300 2.1GHz Laptop (NV4405H)

Hey ganzey,
Thanks for the reply.
However, I would really appreciate if you could be a bit more elaborate as to why I should not go with these brands. These two machine seems to be really competitive based on specs (Memory Size, HDD Capacity, CPU etc) and beat others when considering the price factor.

- I did look up this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834157035
However, I can't go beyond the 14.1" screen size
