    I am humming and hawing between the below 2 laptops.

    Sony VAIO S Series VPC-SE1J1E - i5 2430M/4GB/500GB
    Intel HD3000/Radeon HD6470M- Silver + Free battery
    from Komplett for €699

    or the

    Lenovo G770 17.3 inch Laptop - Black (Intel Core i5 2450M 2.5GHz, 8GB RAM, 500GB HDD, DVDRW, LAN, WLAN, Webcam, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit) from Amazon for €726


    Plus for the Sony is the extra battery life with the free battery from Komplett
    Plus for the Lenovo is the bigger size screen and twice the RAM.

    At the end of the day battery life is not the major thing for me so I am leaning towards the Lenovo.

    I have added a poll to this to let you decide for me, which one would you buy if you had to pick one.

    Thanks

    The Lenovo certainly has the better specs. Here is a comparison of the GPUs for ya:

    Thanks Torqay,

    I'm leaning towards the Lenovo, a tie in the poll at the moment.

    Faster CPU, twice as much memory, better graphics, larger display with a higher resolution... all that for €27* more? It's a no brainer, really.

    * at Amazon you'll have to pay for the delivery

    Never mind the Sony fanboys. :D

    Seriously, it's your money and ultimately your call.

    Cheers, went for the Lenovo, free delivery as it was from amazon.co.uk.
