Both have celeron not as good as the AMD Turion 64 X2 as its faster processor and has two of them
Also Dell has 2gb ram and 160gb hard drive0 -
Are you after a used or a new laptop? That kind of money would buy either an IBM/Lenovo T42/T43 if you shop around carefully, or an X31.
They're rather good machines that "just work", are very robust and should last for years.0 -
Go for the Dell 1501, I have bought 3 in as many months, 2 with Vista, 1 with XP , XP FLIES on this as you would expect
Vista i smuch more resource hungry but pretty, for my mum? XP on the Delldonstermonster
