Choice 2

- Intel® Pentium® M Processor 740 (2MB L2 cache, 1.73GHz, 533MHz FSB);
- 512MB (256/256) DDR2 533 SDRAM;
- 80GB hard drive;
- integrated DVD-Dual drive (DVD+/-RW);
- 15.4" WXGA (1280 x 800) TFT display, Acer® CrystalBrite Technology ;

Unfortunatelly it does not say the battery life, but I am guessing that 1 has longer battery life than 2.
About the price, hmm, well the more expensive one seems better for gaming, but the low battery life is not very good thing. The Cheaper des not seem as good, but the longer battery life makes it better choice(I think).
[EDIT]: I accidentally switched the prices
