i am undecided between two laptops and i was wondering if people could help with my decision. the two laptops are:

These prices are both with 1 year base warranties.
It appears to me that i get some additional performance for a lower price with the dell. I am wondering if i am missing something. I would also appreciate some input on reliability(i plan on purchasing an extended warranty).
I am also open to suggestions for other laptops with similar performance and price.
thanks alot, i appreciate any input
