    These two computers are on sale for $599

    dv2915nr
    dv5-1002nr

    They are spec'd pretty similarly both with 3GB and 250GB HDD, but on is Intel with X3100 and the other is AMD with ATI HD3200....

    I am looking for a cheap computer for running CS3, which one should I get?

    For running CS3, you might be better off with the Intel based machine.
