Which is the best out of these 2 laptops?

I am after a new laptop and have got between £700 and £750 to spend. Whay should I buy and where from? I would like a decent graphics card.
Thanks

    When I decided I wanted a laptop I put all my desired specs into Dell's website (on an Inspiron 6000) and it came to £800. I kept checking back each week and the price fluctualted up to £890-ish and then went down to £700 on a special offer, and I got twice as much RAM as I had orignally specified (and that was on a double-memory offer in the first place) and a bigger hard drive.

    It is like stock trading, just wait around to buy low!

    With Dell you can specify all the different bits you want just like desktop, so you can specify a good graphics card.

    Go for an "M" processor, and make sure you remove the default selected 3 year warranty - that will knock the price down by £100-200.
