I’m having a hard time deciding between these 2, since it seems to me that they are both very similar. I’m not very knowledgeable about different processors and specs and such so if anyone could help, that would be great.
Also, this laptop would be used for just basic stuff. Maybe some photoshop and flash once in a while. No gaming on this thing.
