Hey guys,

So i'm going to Uni next year and need a laptop. I want a laptop that will run games (such as counter strike source, WOW, etc) as well as being used as a word processing laptop.

I have narrowed my search down to these two laptops. I am asking as i'm not sure about the processors.

BOTH COME WITH FREE WINDOWS 7 Smile

First option: Acer Aspire 5530
