They're around the same price +/- $50. 450 or 499.Same price or different?
I'd take the i7 over the touch screen.
If your just talking these 2 machines, and only these 2, then the i7 Acer machine for sure.
Acer over Hp any day!!! I'm serious. I can't recommend HP and haven't for many years, seen way too many issues with their laptops.
These are what I found while shopping...do you have another recommendation for comparable machines?
The reviews for the HP weren't consistently good, but did have repeated bad qualities...my boyfriend has an HP and he really likes his...he was thinking acers were crappy, but they are not?
Well, what is your budget, and what country you in?
What are your main uses with this machine? Depending on these questions, that will help me better answer yours
What are ddr4 and ssd
Here is one from Acer under $7 bills http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834315712
$669 and you get 7th gen i7, DDR4, SSD, HDD.. excellent for the uses you mentioned!! Also, this one is 1080p, the other one you listed is not!
SSD would give you faster bootup and access time speed. HDD would give you enough drive space for file storage.Why do I need SSD and HDD?
