Better laptop performance?-- Intel Core 2 Duo T5300 1.73 GHz + 533FSB or Core 2 Duo T5500 1.66GHz + 667 FSB?

One has a higher GHz while the other has a higher FSB...I plan to use this as a small business comp. Email/Surfing/Biz Appz/w light photo/video/sound editing. Just want to be set up with the better technology that won't leave me behind in 2 years.

Opionions? Thx.

Your computer will be outdated by the time you get it home :)

In all seriousness, and since I don't have any other differences to go with I'd get the one with the higher FSB speed. Processor speed can impact performance, but it's not the end all measure of a computer's power. The FSB speed determines how "fast" your computers memory can talk to the processor and will probably have a greater impact than the relatively small reduction in processor clock speed.
u wont notice much difference ... a laptops main bottleneck is a slow harddrive ... personally id prolly get the 1.73 one .. i bet the ram isnt 667 anyway ..
Always go with the higher number it is the better CPU.
