I have noticed the TOSHIBA runs @ 2 GHZ while the HP is @ 1.7GHZ , but the HP i think has a better graphics card...Is the CPU difference a big issue?

Answers:
the fact that you plan on doing some gaming makes the choice a little easier from my POV..

while intel's laptop graphics have come a decent stretch in the last year or so.. they cant compare to either basic moble chipsets from ATI or Nvidia.. if you intend to do any even casual gaming.. the HP is the choice i would make..

as far as printers go.. as long as it works, I use it.. in not that picky..:P
i would take the hp for the better graphics, and there is not much difference in cpu frequency, and there is a patch you can download to play games more efficiently on an amd. but it's all up to you
toshiba. Better RAM capabilities and HDD for storage. Also, toshiba is a trusted brand.
