Thanks! Would you pick the MD322, if the other comes with the new Ivy bridge, USB 3.0, BT 4.0 and HiRes screen, and the MD322 is left behind on this? Just to get your opinion...
Funny I was sure there was another thread just like this...first one for gaming as the 1 gig graphics card trumps all those things you mention.
Sandybridge and Ivybridge. They're both so powerful, not much difference between the two at those kinda speeds. Its the graphics which is a few generations behind on both, still quick though!
