    Hey i'm about to purchase a laptop (my first one) and can't decide between the two. I want it for College and media functions, and need power for multitasking and such. I'm at a crossroad with these two and not sure which to get. I like the Acer Web cam a lot and want one but the toshiba is cheaper. any suggestions on which 1 might be better quality performance and everything.
    Thanks a lot!
