ASUS:

Both are relatively the same price, dual core 1.6ghz, 2gb ram, 12.1in screen. I know it wont make a huge difference since i wont be playing any hardcore games (just flash games), but I was wondering which graphics card is better ATI HD 3200 or Nvidia ION graphics. Should i choose the ASUS over the MSI because of ASUS' better reputation?

EDIT
i also found this gateway 11.6in AMD II 1.7ghz, 3gb ram with ATI HD 4225 what do you guys think?

gateway looks like the better choice spec-wise but im not to sure about the reliablity of the brand.
