Laptop decision

[cliffhucker]

I am trying to determine which laptop to get.

I only need it for some simple browsing and dvd/cd burning.

Someone is trying to sell me an older Sony Vaio R505EC for $600 the dvd rom does not work but he is offering an external dvd rw.

If I had to choose between those, I would get the second one.

The first one only has a PIII at 1.2GHz..:|

thanks for the reply.

I thought the cpu was better witht the acer. The HDD is bigger also and it has an onboard DVD+-RW DL.

I know it isn;t that great but thanks for answering the simple ?: which one?


Thanks again
cheers
