Ferrari 4002 or 4005?

Which one would be a better buy? Can the 4002 play World of Warcraft really good? All I really do is watch movies, music and surf the web. The only game I play is World of Warcraft, so do I even NEED to get the 4005 model?

They both will serve your need well enough. F4005 might work better with Windows Vista, which might happen in the future.

the 4005 has twice the RAM and 20 more gigs of drive space over the 4002. Those could easily be upgraded now or in the future on the 4002... But the 4002's display is only 1280x800 or something like that, and the 4005 is something along the lines of 1600x1050 (I'm sure I'm a bit off on the resolutions) and that is much harder to upgrade... As well, the 4005 is a 2.0 ghz processor vs a 1.6 for the 4002. I think only in a handful of games will you notice that difference, for the most part both CPUs are plenty fast for all web surfing/music/watching movies/office work/etc...
I debated for 2 weeks about the 4002 vs 4005, and in the end I told myself I didn't want to buy the 4002 and regret not getting the 4005's LCD.... If the resolution would have been equal, I'd have 'settled' for the 4002...

high resoltutions give me a bit of a headache. My lcd monitor uses something like the 4005's res and sometimes its really annoying.
