so, it's back to school season and I need a new laptop, and I do have some computer knowladge and I do have a budget, so I narrowed it down to two laptops that will fit me perfectly, and I need your opinion on which one is better for me. I will start learning programming so keep that in mind. I know you will answer "go for what you think is better for you", but I still want some other opinions from other computer geeks like me.

ok, so here are they:
the Lenovo Yoga 500-15: http://en.ksp.co.il/?uin=31618
and the Lenovo Ideapad 510-15: http://goo.gl/mPFuxv

please give me your opinion on what set of trade-offs is better,
thanks.

Go with the Ideapad. Better CPU, more RAM (or at least the option for more), better screen, better wireless, better built in graphics if you don't get the discrete GPU model. Trade off is just the costs and weight really.
