Hello,

I just recently bought this HP DV6-6013CL from Costco for $599:

Now I'm seeing this Dell Inspiron 15R Laptop with i3-2310 processor for $649. A lot more memory but I can't seem to find any reviews for it. I just need it for the basics - surfing the web and storing my photos and music. I think I'm leaning toward the Dell, any thoughts? http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product.aspx?Prodid=11656981&whse=BC&Ne=5000001+4000000&eCat=BC|84|56670&N=4047229%204294967022&Mo=16&pos=1&No=15&Nr=P_CatalogName:BC&Ns=P_Price|1||P_SignDesc1&lang=en-US&Sp=C&ec=BC-EC5-Cat84&topnav=
 
Solution
Your HP already has that processor. The two laptops are pretty much the same in almost every way. The extra 2gb of RAM won't really make a huge difference for basic tasks. I don't really see any reason to take the HP back.
