    HP>
    CPU: i5-3470 (4 cores, 3.20 GHz)
    Ram: 8 GB, DDR3 SDRAM PC3-10600
    Hard Drive: 500 GB HDD
    Graphic: ??
    Price: $231

    I thought $270 difference would worth the investment for Acer but just wanted to have others’ opinion. This computer is for moderate photo & graphic editing (Photoshop, Illustrator etc..), some small video clip editing, multi-window browser and MS docs etc. No gaming involved but looking for long-lasting computer. If it was you, what would you choose? (I don’t mind spending a little more $. The durability and well-running is my concern. The reason for comparing these 2 specific computer is because someone strongly suggest that HP would be fine. I don’t know how fine it will be though)
