I am buying a laptop and there are 2 models that are similar, what are the differences and which one is a better deal?

Intel Centrino with Core Solo T1350 1.86GHz, hard drive 80GB (5400RPM), Intel GMA 950 with 128MB Shared -- PRICE -- 830$

Intel Centrino 740 1.73GHz, 100GB SATA (5400RPM), ATI Mobility Radeon X600 SE -- PRICE -- 800$

The rest of the spec are the same for both laptops. The 2nd one has a larger hard drive and a non-shared video card. The 1st one is using Core Solo T1350, i don't know if there's any difference. Which laptop is a better deal?

For example, I have seen a GeForce 8800GTX with a different name. There is a XFX GeForce 8800GTX XXX and there is also a BFG GeForce 8800 GTX OC, does the "XXX" and "OC" make the two cards different?

I'm looking to spend under $700. I live in a small town but am willing to travel to buy a decent computer. I will mainly need it for internet access and possible online gaming. If you can give me some suggestions of what brands to buy (or avoid for that matter) and where to go for the best bang for my buck... that would be highly appreciated.

Well, I am posting this question yet again at the cost of five points again because I didn't get a solution the last two times and people only got confused with my question.

I have Samsung Plug-and-Play TFT 19" monitor with Geoforce 6600 and Sony R/W drive. I am way too impressed with the display. But when I play a movie, from a CD or DVD the video quality is poor beyond tolerable limit !

I do not see why this happens only with video. I tried playing the video with different players like Windows Media Player, Realplayer, Winamp etc. but the image quality is never good.

Could somebody guess what is causing this problem ?

Please refer to additional details..

I bought a dvd burner a year ago and up until about 2 months ago it was burning just fine. It will read all types of disks but will not burn dvds or cds now. Any suggestions? Oh, and my device manager says that the device is working fine.

What started as a simple problem with my DVD-ROM started a chain of events that eventually led me to format my hard drive. It's a SATA hard drive and I'm using a GA-K8N Pro-SLI mobo by Gigabyte. I'd like to think of myself as a fairly computer savvy person (I built this pc and got it to work initially), but something seems to be wrong this time around.

I've made floppies containing the SATA drivers (at least I think they're the drivers, the mobo's CD doesn't have a makedisk.exe, so I simply copied the files from the SATARAID folder onto the floppy), and after I load them and Windows begins installing files, everything goes smooth until the first "Setup is starting Windows..." and then bam, blue screen error.

The error says to check for viruses on my computer, remove any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controllers, check the hard drive to make sure it is properly configured and terminated, and to run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption, then restart.

I have a IBM Pentium III laptop and it will work for 30 minutes and then decides to freeze. I then have to just shut it off which makes it mad and these warnings about shutting it down incorrectly pop up but I cant help that because its frozen and I cant shut it down properly! I then get past all that to just have it load forever and then freeze during the loading and then FINALLY I get back to what I was doing to just have it freeze AGAIN! Does anybody have any suggestions before I drop kick it out the door? How do I keep my laptop from freezing? HELP!!!!
