The 1.5 with 2gb of ram will give you more processing power.
The one thing your computer needs when recording is a lot of ram and also playing back. there isnt a huge difference in 1.5 and 1.62 but there is a big difference between 1 and 2 gig's of ram.

hail! guys..

.. it's easy to understand.
... one make calculations faster (meaning for instance offline things like bouncing or deleting,etc.. in less time)-> 1,67-1Gb
.. one handles more working at the same time (more plug ins, more tracks, more.... )-> 1,5 Gb


I'd go for the one with more Ram, it's way more interesting to me to have fancy, heavy plug-ins open.. than doing my time strach in 0.0000013 seconds less... heh! laugh.gif

but in fact... what a sweeet doubt.... choosing between wonderfull and sensacional... just toss a coin...

Cheers!
