Depending on what you are using the laptop for but personaly I would go for the Acer as it has a newer processor and from general experience with acer laptops.

Don't go for the Acer!! The amount of problematic ones my partner has gotten in to fix is unbeliveable. The acer aspire for example has a chronic problem with motherboard failure. To replace it you'd honestly be better of buying a new laptop.

The Toshiba seems ok but i would shop around for a dual core if you want more power. 4GB ram is good and battrey life is good.

Have a look at this one as it would be that bit faster than the Toshiba.

If ure happy with a 15.6 inch screen you should look at some of the laptops that have battery power to last 4 to 5 hrs u get that in the 15.6 range.
Touch wood i have hp laptop has been ok so far but would love laptop with good battery life in it?
Im a great believer in u either get a good one or a bad one but thats just me
