Laptops

[Mike]

I'm still looking for a laptop, and have narrowed it down to a few. Maybe some of you gurus could help me out on deciding =P

Choice 1: HP Pavilion ZV6000
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 3200+ (2.0GHz/512KB L2 Cache)
Screen: 15.4" WXGA BrightView Widescreen (1280x800)
Graphics Card: 128MB (Dedicated) ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M
RAM: 1.0GB DDR SDRAM
HDD: 80 GB 4200 RPM
Optical Drive: DVD+/-RW/R & CD-RW Combo w/Double Layer Support
Price: $1,229

Choice 2: Sony VAIO K37 (Refurbished)
Processor: Mobile Pentium 4 538 (3.2GHz/1MB L2 Cache)
Screen: 15.4” WXGA with XBRITE (1280x800)
Graphics Card: ATI Radeon IGP 345M
RAM: 1.0GB 266MHz DDR
HDD: 80GB 4200 RPM
Optical Drive: DVD+R Double Layer/DVD±RWDrive
Price: $1,299

Choice 3: HP Presario R4025
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 3200+ (2.0GHz/512KB L2 Cache)
Screen: 15.4" WXGA (1280x800)
Graphics Card: 128MB (Dedicated) ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M
RAM: 1.0GB 333MHz DDR
HDD: 80GB 4200 RPM
Optical Drive: DVD±R/RW & CD-RW Combow/ Double Layer Support
Price: $1,249

Now, the Presario and the Pavilion seem nearly identical. If they are identical, I'd get the Presario (since my local Best Buy has it in stock). Is there a difference between the two?

Also, if you know a computer with those kind of specs under $1,300 be sure to tell me

Thanks!


EDIT: Figured I should tell people what it's gonna be used for, . I'm going to use it for programming and web development. Odds are Photoshop, PuTTy, WinSCP3, AIM, Winamp, and Crimson Editor (Programming text editor) will all be running at once. Maybe an installation of PHP/MySQL as well, just because I'm too lazy to upload stuff when I want to test it...
