I am looking at laptops for college and I need help deciding which to buy. I'm stuck on deciding between brands, and the different types of processors. I want to go with either an HP or Toshiba. I've heard mixed opinions on the Intel vs. AMD processors, and even mixed opinions between Intel's Pentium and Intel's Core Duo processors. Any help in clarifying all of this is appreciated!
First, I've spotted the TOSHIBA A135-S4527. It's nice because it's right in my price range ($599 after rebate) and has all I need: 1GB RAM, 120GB HDD, perfect screen size, average/okayyy battery life for the price.
I've also been keeping an eye on the HP DV6324US for the past few weeks. Nice price, but when I compare it next to the Toshiba mentioned above, the specs are relatively the same, but more $$$. The biggest difference is the AMD Turion 64 X2 processor.
Can anyone help me decide between these 2 models, or any similar ones in the same price range? Also clarify Pentium Dual Core vs. Core Duo
