Which laptop to buy, Packard Bell R1802 or Fujitsu Amilo L Intel?

[clark]

Need some help. What do people think of the Packard Bell Easynote R1802, Intel Celeron M370 1.5GHz, 512MB, 50G, DVDRW, 56K modem, 10/100, 15.4", XP, R5999
or the Fujitsu Amilo L Intel Celeron M 1.5GHz, 512MB, 60G, DVDRW, 56K modem, 10/100, 15.4", XP, R6695. As you can see there is quite a difference in the price.

Thanks


Stewart

I have a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo, and I have absolutely no complaints, very well built, and the screen is one of the best laptop screens i've seen

killa, what do you mean it looks like they've been around for 10 years?

have a look at the acer 3623wxmi

A lot of the other brands that offer the same functions are all over R8 000 which I don't want to pay as it is not an essential but would be useful to have, that is why the PB looked like a good deal but have heard that there are reliability and return issues. I was leaning towards the Fujitsu but the extra R700 would also be nice.
