HP g6-1384ea VS Toshiba Satellite L850-166

[GadgetDude01]

I desperately need a laptop and I have found these two. I will be using it for school work (Microsoft Office), photo and video editing, storing videos, photos and music but not much gaming. I will be do a lot of Internet browsing, multitasking and download and uploading stuff onto the Internet.
The only real difference is that the HP is £479.99 and has i5 2450m (2.5GHz), 6GB of RAM and 750Gb of Hard Drive whereas the Toshiba is £449.99 and has i3 2350m (2.3GHz) , 8GB of RAM and 640GB of Hard Drive.

For what you want to do, the i5 is the superior chip.

Why is that?

The i5 is a bit faster and supports turbo core. While the HP has less memory, it has a larger hard drive which is ideal if you plan on storing a lot of stuff.
