Which is a better machine?

Hi Guys,

I can't believe I need to ask for advice...I used to know this stuff. I am trying to buy a new computer for myself. I want a real screamer...something that is incredibly fast. I have two options right now. Option #1 is from a new PC distributor and offers the latest top of the line model. Option #2 is from a local re-builder. The machine is used, but prepped for resale. I am willing to pay the money, but what I want is a great deal.

OPTION #1 $2200.00
ThinkPad P70 Xeon E3-1505Mv5 2.8GHz / 16GB / 256GB / DVD / ac / BT / FR / M600M / 17.3" FHD / W7P64-W10 MFG PART # 20ER002GUS

OPTION #2 $900.00
LENOVO THINKPAD W540 I7 4800QM 2.7 24GB 750GB WINDOWS 10 W/ 7 DISCS DVDRW 15.6 1920X1080 INTEL HD W/ NVIDIA QUADRO K1100M 2GB GDDR5

Which do you all think is a better deal for the money?

Thank you in advance for any help.

Mostly for multiple spreadsheets and browser windows being open. Occasionally i will do some video and image editing, but nothing too heavy on that end. Like right now I have two different browsers open with 5 windows open on one and 7 on the other. Four Excel spreadsheets, two instances of my proprietary accounting software, Outlook, a contact manager and 5 different instant messenger programs.
Thank you....that was what my gut was saying....but wanted another opinion.
