Toshiba L500-1WG or L500-1XD

I am so thinking of buying a new laptop... John Lewis sells L500-1WG £439 and Argos sells L500-1XD £449. I don't know much about computer, I think the main difference is 1WG has Pentium T4400 whilst XD has Core i3.

Computer will be used for browsing, son's gaming and documents.

Is the Core i3 worth the extra £10? Is it worth the risk of buying from Argos instead of John Lewis?

IT advice will be much appreciated!

    I'd try and get JL to price match, but I'd go for the i3 over the C2D-architecture T4400.
