RM-70 is better. Budget/mid-range laptops based on QL-60 or RM-70 feature Radeon HD 3200 or GeForce 8200M IGP so the overall performance is slightly better if your work involves watching HD movies and some casual gaming. But Intel is slightly better in the CPU department generally speaking when it comes to these laptop chips. Look for a HP Pavilion laptop featuring RM-70 and Radeon HD 3200 combo.

The display issue you're talking about is called poor viewing angles. It depends entirely on the lcd panel used in the laptop and there's no way to predict what you get. There are even cases in which same laptop models features panels from different manufacturers .

As for display names, in HP nomenclature glossy screens are called BrightView. HD HP BrightView is just the same. There's an additional BrightView Infinity display option which has better aesthetics due to its frameless nature.
