I'm currently stuck between choosing these two models.
Sony: http://www.sonystyle.ca/commerce/ser...n100299n100525
Toshiba: http://www.toshiba.ca/web/product.gr...=8410&category=
The latter is smaller and can be expanded to a 6gb ram while the Sony is 4gb. Its GPU is ATI Radeon 3470 while the NS is ATI Radeon 3430. Is there much of a difference? Also, the processor is Intel T6400 for the Sony and T5800 for the Toshiba even though the specifications are exactly the same. I don't know much about computers so specifications wise, which one is better? And which brand is generally more reliable? Right now, I'm leaning towards the Sony because of its reputation, design and slightly superior specifications(from what I can tell). But I'm an university student and I'm not sure if a 15.4incher would be portable enough for me. Anyone has any experience in that regard?
I'll mostly be using the laptop for:
- schoolwork
- photoshop
- internet
- movies
- occasional gaming like WoW and URT...I'm not expecting to play Crysis or anything like that
So based on what I said, which one is the better choice overall?
*edit*
After doing some researching, it seems that the Sony NS isn't very well received. Should I be considering the Toshiba or another set?
