    if you want to run photo shop neither of these machines will be up for the job, processors, out of the top one is obviously going to be a faster machine because it is a laptop while the other is a netbook and is going to be slower. if you intend on doing an awful lot of work on photoshop you would be better off going for a machine with dedicated graphics, but something like this is going to be €500+
