    Well it would depend on your "Must not exceed"s for pricing and your "Must be able to" for performance.

    If you got the money, max that baby out. Otherwise, why ask? Assess what things you do and need performance for and choose wisely.

    :D

    I prefer the LED screen.

    The T8100 is a newer processor, die shrink, uses less power.

    2GB vs 3GB depends on your needs. I go with 3 - 4 GB.

    Wireless card depends on which router you already own or if you plan on upgrading.

    I like the backlit keyboard. Helps in the dark.
