Question:
Configuring my $999+ Dell 1505
After reading all the reviews on here, it seems like the Dell 1505 is the best option for me. I will be doing some gaming (EA Sports, Need For Speed Carbon, maybe Test Drive Unlimited). I will be travelling with it, so I really don't want a 17" clunker. I plan to use the 25% off $999+ code in the coming days.
For the graphics card I'm choosing the X1400, which appears to be the best option on the 15" models.
For the processor, my thinking was that I should invest in the best processor, since that can't be upgraded in the future. Are there big performance differences between the T5500/T5600/T7200, or would I be better off spending less on one of the cheaper processors and spending more on the 7200rpm HD?

You're gonna see a diffrence between those CPUs only if you do demanding tasks such as rendering and video encoding but not for regular stuff and games.
I personally would get a faster HDD but only if it's not too expensive.
