Lets see, # 2, larger hard drive, faster processor, faster RAM, webcam, HDMI
possibilities all for .75 KG (1.65 lbs) more weight and cheaper too. Sounds
like a no brainer to me. I would go for more RAM if possible if you are
planning on running Vista. Probably enough for most applications with XP
operating system.
This system is apparently not available in the US and I can't read Korean or
Chinese to get the other specs on the laptops in question. The only thing
Samsung sells in the US is one type of tablet PC with different processors
and features.
