You said gaming? Neither. You will be hard pressed to to find any game besides WOW that will play well on integrated graphics. Have you looked at the Dell Inspiron 1520? It would be a better option.
If I had to choose from the two that you listed I think I would choose the second one just because 2gb of RAM is almost a must with Vista.
