Go with Dell. They have better customer service and warranties (I advise an extended warranty if you can swing it in either case, especially HP). I've never had an issue with a Dell, i.e. the family has a bunch of Dell laptops, while I've had nothing but problems with HP. I've lost 3 laptops from HP in roughly a year due to over heating. That's my 2 cents at least. There are probably some that haven't had an issue with HP.

*To clarify: I've had three HP's which died within a year or a little over of their purchase; not three in one year.
