    Is there much of a difference? $100.00 worth? Would be used for Photography editing-Photoshop.
    :confused: Mobile Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD with Intel® Clear Video Technology
    :confused: ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 3650 with 512MB vRAM

    FW290 white- is the inside white also or is it silver?

    Thanks for any info.

    4500MHD vs ATI3650 doesn't make a huge difference in Photoshop editing tasks. Choosing between the standard ECO screen (usually shipped with more basic, 4500MHD FWs) and the gorgeous dual lamp FullHD display would have a greater impact on graphic design.
