Ugh, there have been so many topics on this question already.

Could you be more specific as to which Core 2 Duo Processor the laptop offers?

If you're wanting to purchase a laptop for long battery life and don't plan on doing high-performance functions, the Core 2 Duo SU7300 is a good choice.

Otherwise, if you want more power, then the i3 is better with the new Hyper-Threading. But that's only if the price difference isn't that big.

List the specs of the two laptops. i3 is a faster cpu.

Also list what is the most important thing from most to least important for an example: gaming-hard drive space- battery life-screen size (bigger)-etc. Or anything else that might be useful.
