I'm in the market for a new laptop. I've filtered my choices to these 2. Which is better and why?

Which is better? In what way? Price, its Dell, quality, its still Dell! Tech support? Dell again! You dont even see Lenovo on the same list any longer, there is a reason IBM sold it to China you know.

Your asking the wrong question though. Do you mean to say, what is the best laptop you can purchase? I am sure its a Sony Vaio or something like that, 5k. Do you mean the biggest bang for your buck? Have you looked into Acer? Not too bad as long as you dont need support. IBM, Dell and HP are all shipping lower level support calls to Inda

Lenovo by far, mainly because of the quality of support. I owned a dell and they out-resource all their tech support to india, so you wait online for 5+ hours to get ahold of someone you can't understand. IBM is extremely well known within the business industry for their outstanding laptops. Their tech-support is great and they support open-source if you want to run unix/linux on it. Dell also looks like a good price for their laptops but if you add any decent features they jack up the price sky-high.
