it depends what you want it for, but imo the first one is the better, the processors are the same, it has a bigger monitor, better graphics. though it is over 1Ib heavier and has 20GB less HDD memory.

That's what I thought too. All I really need the laptop for is to write php for my server and to watch movies. So I really like that it has a 17 inch screen.

would anyone happen to know about what time prices normally drop on laptops? I heard around November, but I need this for school so I can't wait that long.

Anybody?

Thank you.
