The 1420 is only offered in Intel versions and I believe it does not have the advanced video card options that the 1520 does. Also, the 14 and 15 numbers represent screen sizes. 1420 is smaller and lighter. Possibly with a bit more battery life.
The 1520 is also offered as 1521 which uses AMD processors.
The 1420 and 1520 both can have webcams and the same processors and RAM, so if you want a basic system to use the internet, check email and chat with your friends the 1420 is more than enough. the 1520 would only be if you wanted something bigger to play advanced games with (if you threw in an Ndivia 8600 card)
As I said earlier: I prefer the smaller one for basic tasks, word processing, web surfing. You can use the camera to chat.
But I prefer the bigger one for gaming... which is the only real use for it above the other one.
Overall I'd suggest the 1420.

the only diffrence is that the 1420 is a 14.1" widescreen display and the 1520 is a 15.4" widescreen display. i prefer the smaller one.
