I'm looking at getting a Dell soon, either an e1405 or an e1505. I would like a decent amount of power, but I am more concerned about size and battery life. I will mainly be doing video and photo editing, and school work. Gaming would be nice, but I really don't care either way. I have a custom built beast on my desk for that.

The two system configs I am looking at are:
e1405 - T2500, 14.1 inch WXGA+, 2GB DDR2, XP Home, everything else basic
e1505 - T2400, SXGA+ Display, 1GB DDR2, 256MB NVIDIA® GeForce™Go 7300, most everything else basic

Also, which one would be more durable (if there is really a difference)? I am kinda hard on laptops, and I have been denied access to a D620 like I originally wanted.

Thanks,
