Both offer a resolution of 1680x1050 pixels and can be configured with Core i5-430M (dual-core - 2.26GHz - 3MB) or i7-720QM (quad-core - 1.6 GHz - 6 MB) and up to 8 GB of DDR3.


Disk drive composes of 500 or 640 GB, a DVD burner or a combo Blu-ray, and a 4-in-1 card reader. Not to overlook gigabit LAN, WiFi, Bluetooth and WebCam.

The 9-cell battery should allow handling or performance as needed in vue of the strong system specs.
