Edit - just read its 1-2 weeks delivery. Kept link though incase someone else is interested. AMD fusion for under £300 aint bad0 -
The Sony is a 1st generation i3 processor and the Lenovo is the newer "sandybridge" i3 processor with a better graphics card.Plan is that I will buy one of these two but my other half could always return it if it does not arrive tomorrow.
Does anybody know what the difference in the two processors is?Always get a Qualified opinion - My qualifications are that I am OLD and GRUMPY:p:p0 -

The one with the closest spec is the same price, but with a smaller screen and HDD.
The middle, smaller screen, less RAM and 3 cell battery and the cheapest @ £300 is not even in the 'ballpark'.0 -
Takethis - very tempting as it is very lightweight. But I think I prefer the battery life and DVD of the Lenovo.
Jaydee - thanks but unfortunately the delivery time is 1-2 weeks!0 -

No optical drive? Oops! An oversight.
Just check that the Lenovo has a matte screen if you intend to use it outdoors. 0 -
