I don't care much about the different screen sizes, I just need your opinion on which one is a better buy. They have very similar specs, but is the M50 really worth a $120 more than the F8?

Links fixed.

Edit:

Now I've looked at them, the slightly more expensive one has more RAM, but a slightly smaller screen (cheaper one doesn't say what res, so dunno how that compares) and a smaller HDD. CBA to check how the GPUs compare. On that basis, if the cheaper one was just below intended budget and the dearer one just above, I'd go with the cheaper one, but if they're both in-budget, I'd go for the more expensive one.

M50. The graphics card is about three times faster.
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP
