I will be mostly using the laptop for day to day use, including surfing, email, but I will also be using it for a sound program that uses USB ports and some graphic work on Corel Draw 11, and AI as well. I like to multi-task a bit. I will also be doing some DVD back-up stuff (ripping and burning). So I would really like to know which unit is the best bang for the buck. I really like the HP packaging (look and feel) but I don't want to base my decision on just looks (LOL, don't judge a book by it's cover so to speak) as I don't mind the clean lines of the toshiba! Again losta thanks for any answers and input!
