Angry My bike was stolen!!!!!!!!

I need help replacing my bike. I had a 2001 Rocky Mountain Vapour and did some cross country and trails with it. 90% of the time I commuted with it and liked it since I weigh 190 and I have 45lbs in my paniers. I upgraded the rims on it because of the weight. I'm now trying to decide on which of these bikes to get. Can someone help me decide?

Specialized - Hardrock Sport Disc - $699.00
Giant - Yukon - $569.05
GT - Avalanche 2.0 disc (2005) - $650.00
Marin - Bobcat trail - $690.00

These prices are in Canadian dollars. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I personally am not familiar with any of these bikes,but I would suggest changing your title to "need help buying a new mtb".
That way you will attract the right responses.

You use it for commuting 90% of the time? Get the cheapest bike. Heck I'd even go the next level down. Commuting and locking it in a public place, especially one in which it was stolen before, means the odds are pretty good that it will get stolen again. I'd get a used beater for commuting, no sense in buying a halfway decent mtb only to keep it on the road.
