Except for the processor and the RAM. there is not much diff. b/w both these configs.

The AMD Soln. has more RAM and smaller screen size.

Do note that when going Branded, RAM is costlier than wat is offered by other Hardware vendors.

I wud recommend the AMD soln, cos it is lighter, more effective and better in terms of performance to the Intel combo in this case.

I also see that the OS is Vista Home Premium. Mebbe u cud try that with a Win XP Pro. (cuts down the costs as well).

Both looks gr8, My suggestion is, Request a Memory Upgrade for the Intel Model, HP Pavilion dv9222TX Entertainment Notebook PC (RZ899PA)

Ask ur Delear that U want a 2 x 1 GB Interface, from Company, (as many dealer will suggest u to buy then go for RAm upgrade, dont do that)....

Ask him that U need HP warrenty in entire product !!!

so I say go for the Intel One with a RAM upgrade in 2GB (2x1) interface !!!!

as u have budget for buying more expensive AMD one so, i figure the RAM upgrade for Intel one will make it close to the AMD price :D but this config will rock over AMD one :lol:
