if you are looking foward hd filming editing pigandpig ?
and at good rate ? it depend of what caliber you aim. if you aim high caliber do a simple video card as 8400GS It offer the Great Feature of Video editings. INTEL GMA IS REALY horrible for that kind of thing
filing editing only take Advtange of VIDEO CARD & CPu Beyond 2Gig of ram is mostly useless.
and you can add memory after bought he laptop for much cehaper 30$ you got 2GB 800mhz. i swear ;) in a single piece instead of 2x.1024
and where are both canadians. so what is your laptop budget ? i donno for those two il look foward ur link brb
if it REALY REALy only filming editing the sony. does of resolution screen if you have no monitor near you that you want to plug on it 1600x900 else if you don't touch that resolution caliber. aim right for ACER THEY ARE THE TOP !
better video editing. but Weak screen resolution compare sony VIO
cause the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 is weak compare to 9500M

sony (good Feature)
Native Screen Resolution 1600 x 900for is Editing space .
Graphics Chips ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470
acer good feature
Native Screen Resolution 1366 x 768is not is Screen resolution but it famous 9500M for the price
Graphics Chipset NVIDIA GeForce 9500M GS

Thank for your advice. I bought the sony one and its' screen is 1080p. All my videos and photos look very clear on that sceen. I am think about editing some documentary on my way of travel. That's why I need a laptop. :)
