Ok, it's time I need some experts opinions. I don't know anything about laptops or much computer stuff at all but I know my husband wants a laptop for his birthday. I have two here from the same seller that I am comparing. I want to know if it's worth it to get the higher priced one or if the lower priced one is a better deal for what I'm getting. My hubby needs it for writing. He's wanting to write a book and he needs a traveling computer. He is also a teacher and would just like to have his work with him when he needs it. Being internet capable is a definite plus but I don't know how that works with laptops. Anyway, the prices are the first one is 399 on half.com or the second one is 179 starting bid or 229 to buy it now on ebay. I don't have much money so if the cheaper one is the better buy for the buck, I'll get that one. But if it's junk I don't want it. I just need some help from you experts. Thanks for taking the time to compare these two units for me. Neither my husband nor I know much about these things, so we need to keep it simple. :)
Sincerely,
Heather
