I've got $650 to spend on a laptop for "school". I'm a little torn between 2 laptops that I've been looking at. I am hoping you guys can point out the better machine. I want it for media and light gaming use so I want a 17" screen. Can't really decide between these 2...

I'm a bit worried about this one because I haven't spent any time on a machine with a AMD A8, but I see the graphics would be a lot better on this. I've also had good experiences with Toshibas.

For that price it comes with an i7.... thats about it.
