JPMorgan financial analyst vs Citigroup technology analyst internship?

I have received two internship offers. One from JPMorgan for their summer financial analyst program. And a second from Citigroup up a technology analyst doing software development. Should I go with JPMorgan because of the brand name recognition on my resume. Or would the software development experience from Citi look more impressive? I'm majoring in Computer Science and Finance by the way. I do want to work as a software developer in the future. However, my conflict is should if I should really pass up JPMorgan where I'll still get great exposure to financial modeling but none to software development. Should I go with JPMorgan or would the software development experience serve me better in the future? And unfortunately there was no software development on the table for me with JPMorgan. I guess the real question is what's more valued software development or financial modeling/ analysis (forecasting)? Or should I just go with JPMorgan because of the brand recognition? However, with Citi I could still get SOME exposure to financial modeling although most of my time will be spent on software development despite Citigroup not being as prestigious as JPMorgan. (if that matters much) HELP PLEASE
