    In my search for a new Laptop PC, I have heard many great things about this model of HP. I want one of this size and you seem to get a lot of bang for you buck. My question is which version of the model is better. I know there is an ongoing controversy between Intel vs AMD, but Please lend me some advice as to which version of the dv5000 model is superior. The main differences are (of course) the Intel Core Duo and AMD Turion 64 Processors, the Graphics Card, and the Hard Drive. I can pay around $2,000-$2,200 for my new Laptop, so please Advise Away. Also the screen is another question I have. Is it better to get the Upgrade or stay with the basic. Or, should I look to another model/brand of laptop completely? I really appreciate any help I can get.
