On sale T42 2378RGU vs T60 1953D6U?

[paulgj]

Hello,

I'm in the market for my first Thinkpad and laptop and noticed the following T42 model available at PCConnection for $1099 w/free shipping and no tax.

Any opinions on this particular model? I also noticed Buy.com has the T60 1953D6U for $999

I notice the T42 has 64MB video whereas the T60 has the integrated Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950. How much of an issue would this be especially if I wanted to run Vista on either of these machines? I am not a gamer so that is not a consideration.


Thanks in advance,
Paul
