.... a new laptop.

I am in the market for a new laptop but can only afford £350-400. Which of these two would you recommend? One from [url= http://www.comet.co.uk/shopcomet/product/536164/ACER-AS5535-624G16MN?cm_re=homepage-_-tab1-_-product3 ]Comet[/url] or [url= http://www.pcworld.co.uk/martprd/product/304415 ]PC World[/url]?

Both have 2ghz processors and enough storage for me and 4gb of ram which is the best i can find for the money and probably more than i will ever need but it's nice to have it in back-up. I think the only decernable difference is one is a Intel Pentium processor while the other is an AMD Athlon. Is the Pentium processors still the best you can get at this sort of price range or are the AMDs better these days?

The computer will be used for Internet, running MS Office, storing pics and music, playing the odd game and thats about it really.

Any pointers will be greatly appreciated.

(SORRY, should be in chat, can it be moved?)
