I’m not gonna type up all the specs (click the link, and look at them yourselves), but here are a few:

Proccesor: 1.74 GHz Intel Core Duo Processor T2450
Cache: L2: 2MB
System Bus: 533 MHz.

#2:
(Customized Dell Vostro 1500)

OS: Windows Vista Ultimate
Screen: 15.4″ Widescreen XGA display with TrueLifeTM

I know both of them don’t have top of the line hard drives, but I’m not concerned about that. For $100, I can get a 500GB (7200RPM) external hard drive. Also, both of them have integrated/shared video memory. I could upgrade the Dell to a 256MB dedicated memory, but it will cost me another $199. But I’m not really worried about the graphics card that much. I’m not much into PC gaming — I prefer to play on a console.
At the moment, I’m kinda leaning toward the Vostro, but the $200 price difference is what’s making this a tough decision.
