Choices Choices (Ferrari/8202)

Given that they are almost identical prices, which would currently be the better buy out of a 4005 wlmi and the 8202wlmi? My usage is lots of internet, and lots of gaming (Everquest 2, Dawn of War, several FPS's).

My head says that the 8202 with its x1600 will be better, but it only has the 1.66 processor (albeit dual core), so I would love some advice on this.

This will be my first laptop, and I would like it to be as futureproof as I can afford. My budget is arounf £1500UKP, so any advice very gratefully received

Thanks in advance.

Anyone offer any advice here please? Or is it really that much of a no-brainer with X1600 vs. X700?

I am also trying to choose btw the Ferrari and the 8202, but I think I will go for the Ferrari with its Turion processor bcs 1.6 is too low I think...

Why not the 8204? its not that much more money (here atleast) and it has a 2ghz duo ?
MUCH better than the ferrari. PLUS yous till get the very awesome carbon fiber case
Thats the one I plan on buying (well one of the ones i narrowed down )

Well if you would consider buying the 8204, then why not wait a little while for laptops to start appearing with the Turion X2, which would be the best of both worlds....
