Dell Inspiron laptop with Intel i5 or Dell Inspiron laptop quad core?

[shellco20]

What is the difference? Which would be better, faster? I ordered the Dell Intel i5. It was from HSN on the daily special for $599.00 with free shipping. Free lifetime (of the computer) of North American support, tons of software that I can choose to install or not. I mistakenly thought it was quad core.

I could get this one, smaller, half the Ram, less money, but AMD quad core.

I'd stick with the intel based system.

Q; what are you going to be doing on a laptop?

Thanks for the quick reply! Not a gamer. Just a 66 year old lady, use mostly for photo editing, web, e mail, just the standard stuff.

Both of them will do what you want by far. I do tend to like intel better myself.
