toshiba or hewlett packard laptop?

I’m buying a new laptop, and choosing between the HP Pavillion dv4 and the Toshiba Satellite U505

Does anyone out there have one of the computers or a similar one (or one by the same brand)? Could you tell me how well you like it, and if you’ve had any problems?

The HP Pavillion is here:

And the Toshiba Satellite is here:

They’re very similar, and i’m trying to choose between the two. Thanks for your help!

Which is better for photo editing – a MacBook Pro or a high end HP laptop?

I am into photography but have a crappy gateway laptop right now and am looking to upgrade soon. Everyone tells me that an Apple is the way to go for photo editing but the 13.3 inch macbook pro cost 1199 and a 15 inch HP with many more features costs 829. The HP I am looking at specifically is a DV7-4053CL. Which would be best for photo editing and why? Thanks!
