Hi,

My little cousin has qualified for this Home Access Grant which allows him to get one of these crummy Laptops for free:

Acer Extenza 5235 - Intel Celeron 990 - 1gb mem
Samsung R519 - Intel Celeron Dual-Core T3100 1.9GHz - 1gb mem
Toshiba L450D - AMD Sempron SI-42 2.1GHz - 1gb mem
Samsung R519 - Intel Celeron Dual-Core T3100 1.9GHz - 2gb mem

My question to the mighty OcUK is: Which is the best of this bad bunch?

I'm thinking the Samsung R519 with 2gb of RAM is the superior, but would just like a more informed opinion before I condem my poor little cousin to a painstakingly slow laptop of death!
