Please help me choose a laptop ?

The HP has better specs (faster processer, bluetooth capability, bigger screen, better graphics card.). But it also has Service Pack 1 which could really cause compatibility problems if you want to use older hardware with it like a webcam. That's what happened to me when I bought my new HP with SP1. I had to find a workaround to get my old webcam working with it. If that's not a concern for you, then I'd go with the HP. (Have no idea whether it makes a difference where it's manufactured.)
