    hello, I am thinking of buying this laptop for general net,music movies use [will also play blue ray with external blu ray drive and take output on 21inch Lcd montor] i am confused between

    http://www.notebookreview.com/price/product.asp?productFamilyID=1188&pid=150147
    For 53000 PKR
    and

    http://www.makarts.com/new/product_info.php?products_id=1002
    Note the shokeeper said he will give me upgarde me to 2gig ram.
    For 50,000 PKR

    one has slower processor, ram But a dedicated graphy,other with faster cup/ram but no dedicated graphy, so in real world's terms, will there be any significant difference between either of 2? if yeah which one would be better?

    PS : ignore the screen difference, its managable for me

    Big difference in the CPU performance.. and I wouldn't touch the Acer unless it can be overclocked, and it seems it can. setfsb supports has PLL support for the Acer RTM865T-433 (Acer Aspire 4710G).

    Is there any other FSB>667 machines in your budget/location with dedicated graphics.. (do you need a gpu)?

    Depends on what you're doing. If you want to game, neither are going to be very good, but the machine with the dedicated GPU will be better, despite the slower GPU. Otherwise, for day to day tasks, you won't feel much of a difference between the two, and should go for the Toshiba, which is built on newer technologies.
