have you been to any of those sites which benchmarks these products and read the specs / results ??

do a google on the make/model then a coma and type reviews < The second PC is much better, but I think you'll be able to find a better deal.
Quad core is not necessary for msot people now and will drive the price up.
The HDD is bigger on the second (Acer) machine, and the graphics card is a lot better too, plus it's cheaper.
The only disadvantage is that it comes with more rubbish, like Norton Antivirus, but you can remove that when you get it.
One last thing - you MAY have trouble using that as a gaming machine with Vista installed.
