I'm debating getting a new computer. The two computers are basically the same, except one has a Intel® Celeron® processor N2840 and a 500 GB hard drive while the other has a AMD Quad-Core A6-6310 Accelerated Processor and a 750 GB hard drive. The first one is $250 and the second is $320.
Is the second computer worth the extra $70? I'm leaning toward no. Any thoughts from non Apple fanbois would be appreciated.

Re: Intel Celeron processor vs AMD processor
While AMD has improved leaps and bounds over the years, I'm a pretty diehard Intel guy. Assuming the RAM is the same, and 500 gigs is enough for you (which it is for about everyone who doesn't store a bunch of movies), I'd default to the Intel.
