probably the second one, but neither is very good for gaming.

meh. people don't usually associate "gaming" with "laptop", especially "cheap laptop".
What are you looking at running on it?

They're pretty balanced in terms of advantages and disadvantages. I'd go with the one that has the Windows 7 license. Then again, at a quick glance I'd also up the ante a bit and go with http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a … 834157278.

They're passable for most games. I just wouldn't expect full graphics from the poor things.

Just to give you some perspective:

My Dell Studio 15 with a slightly better CPU and a Ati Mobility Radeon 4570 does CoD4 on low/med-ish with anywhere between 30 and 80 FPS. In MP that is. With that said, CoD4 is a late 2007 game! So don't expect much from a budget laptop in terms of gaming.

EDIT: Oh and it did the SP of BC2 on lowest settings with barely 30 FPS. Mostly 25-ish.

30FPS is good for a modernish game on a low-budget laptop. I usually keep my laptops between $800 and $1300, but other people have different priorities.
