Laptop Recommendations by John Anderton on 10-16-2005 at 12:08 PM
Ok i needed some info on some good laptops.
They should be
a) within my budged of around 30 - 40k INR (use the convertor 
)
b) look good
c) Powerfol to a limit
Basically what i know so far that i want is ...
P4, 256mb ddr ram, 64mb gfx card (nvdia or ati), 40 gb hdd and a writer.
These are my basic requirements.
I looked at alienware and well .... area 51 is out of reach but sentia is ok but its gfx card sux

If you don't play games or anything, don't try to find the top of line card.

I'm just about to buy a laptop for uni - I think I'm going to go for an Apple PowerBook. I can do everything I can on Windows (a lot easier infact) and if I wanted to play games (I don't usually play games) I still can.
If you are still in education, you can get educational discount.

Why don't you buy a dell? They offer complete systems often including anti-virus/firewall and are ready to use when you buy them . (And they have good low pricing..)

my bet would be on compaq atm.. i'm a fan of amd and hp/compaq are the only oem manufactures that i could find with a decent name and amd. dells are usually cheap though.

To be honest, if you want to buy something new that will last, I d suggest u going for a celeron and a min. of 512 Mb of memory.. Try checking on acer for some good prices. Compaq And Hp are rlly good too, id suggest them over Acer, but I gotta admit it's a little pricier..
