@esumitkumar: If u have gone through this entire thread, u can get some points about laptops. Please do specify ur particular requirements and budgets clearly. :roll: :roll: Nothing is best until and unless it meets ur requirements. Mention if there is anything special you need to be in ur lappie, like wi-fi or long battery life or monsterous speed.

Any way, an overall idea may be given. If u r going for cheapest lappie, Acer is the company. But remember, in cheap region (around 30-35K) u wont get centrino i.e. no wi-fi. U will get celeron, turion, sempron. If celeron is ok for u, the best bet is acer travelmate2355.

Acer TM 2355NLC: Mobile Intel Celeron-M Processor 360 @ 1.4GHz, 1MB L2 Cache, 400MHz FSB, 256MB DDR RAM, 40GB HDD, 24x CDRW+DVD Combo Drive, 15 inch TFT, LAN, 56K Fax/Modem, 3 USB Ports, Linux OS, 1 year standard ITW (including battery). (Additional Charges for Freight, handling and Carrybag for TM 2355NLC model applicable)
Price : Rs. 30999/-

For centrino platform, u have to go beyond 40K.

Then u can go for compaq, IBM or Dell too.

PS: Post-service is a critical aspect for new lappie. So do check the local muggle

representative of the company u will be going for.
