The one with more RAM would be better. Having twice as much RAM is better than a slight increase in clcok speed
Post a link to them both on here so people can see the full specs, there may be other differences as well.It's my problem, it's my problem

well if you compare the specs on the PC World site the Advent has
Ethernet Port
56k Modem
Wireless enabled
All of the above is listed as not specified for the Packard Bell and are all things I would want.
Also they both use up to 128Mb of system memory for the Graphics so I would definately go for the one with 1024Mb of RAM.
before you choose though, have a look at the sticky at the top of this forum 'the great cheapest laptop hunt', there may be a better deal there.It's my problem, it's my problem
