Get something else. The graphics chip sucks and you don't have enough memory to even bother running Vista. Besides, the first notebook doesn't appear to have a hard drive? Please post more specs and tell us what you even plan on doing with the notebook.

Any would be fine, though I recommend you at least double the RAM to 1 GB. Raising it to 2 GB would be optimal, if you can afford it.

RAM is a big deal. 1GB is the minimum (especially wince you are stuck with Vista, bleh).
I'd go with the Intel. A) You said it was cheaper B) I believe they are more power efficient than the Turion I was speaking idiomatically. ~ Ready To Strike ~ :Currently Playing: League Of Legends(PC), Skyrim(PC), Golden Sun: Lost Age(GBA), Twilight Princess(Wii), Portal2(PC), Dragon Warrior II(NES), Metroid Prime 2: Echoes(GC)
