I think you would benefit from having four cores in the APU. A Scorpio Black HDD would be beneficial too.
Is a blu-ray drive necessary?
I would buy the better warranty. Problems can occur unexpectedly.

I know my points would drive the price past £600. I don't think I'm entirely wrong though. I don't know enough about what effect downgrading the GPU would have; I don't have experience with recent-generation GPU cards.

I suggest you ditch Norton and use Microsoft Security Essentials (which is free), then use the saving to get a 1920 x 1080 monitor. 1366 x 768 would be painfully low-res at 18.5".
