Performance wise, no. Mobility wise, I guess.
If you're looking for a little more performance, but willing to carry something heavier, get this:

Same price but with a 16" screen, dual core and a 4200, which should be better than the 3410 the other one had. My brother has this laptop, but with a different GPU, and I say it runs fairly hot and a little on the heavier side, but it's doable.
