    HP 17'' Pavilion dv7-1279wm Laptop PC w/ Intel Core 2 Duo Processor T6400
    Price: 898.00

    HP 16'' Pavilion dv6-1050us Laptop PC w/ Intel Core 2 Duo Processor P7450
    Price: 1018.00

    OK.. I can buy either one BUT the only difference I find in them is

    DV6
    CPU = 2.13GHZ / 3Meg L2 Cache
    NVIDIA GeForce 9200M GS NB9M GE
    400GB (5400RPM)
    6-Cell Lithium-Ion battery
    Bluetooth

    DV7
    CPU = 2.0GHZ / 2Meg L2 Cache
    NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT
    500GB (5400RPM)
    8-Cell Lithium-Ion battery
    NO Bluetooth

    BOTH come with 4 Gig DDR upto 8GB supported
    BOTH have Webcams

    I wanted Fingerprint, BT, Webcam -- but in my price range all I can find is these 2 models and lol neither have Fingerprint, and only 1 has the Bluetooth

    What I want is a laptop to play general games Nothing real highend, do web work, graphics, code, etc.

    these are the 2 I narrowed it down to
    please any recommendations and information to support your recommendation is appreciated
