Alright, so I'm trying to pick out a laptop for college and I was wondering what kind of hardware I should get. I am going to be multi tasking on it alot also I will be playing a few games on it. I want something that will last me upwards of 5-6 years with out getting sluggishly slow or needing an upgrade.

I was looking at three different processors and either 4GB or 6GB of RAM.
1) Intel Duo Processor P7450 (2.13 GHz, 3 MB L2 Cache, 1066MHz FSB)
2) Intel Duo Processor P8700 (2.53 GHz, 3 MB L2 Cache, 1066MHz FSB)
3) Intel Duo Processor T9550 (2.66 GHz, 6 MB L2 Cache, 1066MHz FSB)

What combination of processor and RAM should I get?
