[QUOTE="Spottydumplings, post: 504860, member: 39844"] Of those two I think that I would go for the first. Although the second has got a larger hard drive it is quite slow (5400 rpm) as it is on the first. The advantage that the first has here is that it appears to be a "hybrid" drive in that it has 128GB of solid state disk built in. If this is where the operating system and any applications are installed it will run a lot quicker than the second; as it is reading from SSD and not waiting whilst the disk spins. If you intend to do most of your image processing at a desk you can add external monitor[s] as you say - you could probably even hook it up to your TV:encouragement:. The first will probably be lighter, so when you do want to take it out-and-about it won't be such a weight to lug around.[/s] [/QUOTE]
