| Which notebook is faster? I need some help to make a decision: Which notebook would be faster for software development? I have two choices: 1. 1.5G Pentium M with 2G RAM and NVidea GeForce Go5650 graphics 2. 2.0G Pentium M with 500 MG RAM and ATI Mobility Radeon graphics. I tend to have a lot of windows(SAP and Oracle) open at once when doing web development. That might make a difference. But everything I touch is on remote servers. Neither of these laptops are good choices, but it's all my employer is offering. Any opinions? |

| 512MB RAM is bad for XP regardless of the application.
