AMD = Sempron 3500 vs Turion 64 MK-36

[Azurik]

I'm buying a quick and dirty basic laptop for my friend. The difference between these two options is $50. Is this worth it for Vista? She's a newswriter so the majority of her time on here is just writing up articles and surfing the web, with the occasional digital photo/video viewing.
