Giant OCR Alliance comp vs Trek 1.9?

Question

Newbie here, need some guidance. I am debating over a brand new trek 1.9 or Giant OCR Alliance comp. Both are 2008 models and are both at about the $2000 mark. How do I decide?

Just so that you know, I have been riding a raleigh hybrid for 5years and now want to move up the chain into road bikes.

Pls shed some light.

Thanks

Personally, I like Treks over Giants.  Even though that particular Trek isn't made in this country.  I didn't dee a Trek 1.9 on their website, but both bikes are similar.  

For $2000.00, you might look at Jamis or KHS....you can get a carbon frame at that price level with them
