@Magnet: A little correction needed, I am mentioning my name in my post. You can please check that. And I am confused about "pict of your system". I dont own that compaq one. In fact I am having a dell lappy.
For the image of the compaq model, u can visit

@esumit: For the latest price, the best u can do is to search for the number of ur nearest dealer and call them up bcoz even in site, they dont always mention the price and if it is mentioned there is no guarranty that it is the latest one.
For the AGP slot and all other bits n pieces, u can visit the HP site and see the things in details. Then u will have a clear idea of possible upgradations too.

esumit, my genuine suggestion is that never go for an assembled laptop. Laptop is not that much sturdy like a desktop. Due to its weak build and unprotected components like, keyboard, laptops are very much susceptible to damage and we need technical support for them. In branded lappy only, u will get a good support.
Lastly, the turion issue. With AMD's recent release of its Turion processor, Intel's mobile market faces its first real challenge since it introduced the Centrino platform. Based on AMD's powerful Athlon 64 line, the Turion 64 mobile processor claims to offer comparable battery life and even better performance than Intel's Pentium M champion. So definiely Intel is waging a price-war against Turion. Honestly speaking, turion is still a new baby in indian market. As far as my knowledge is concerned, till now, only Acer has launched a model based on turion64. I think it is aspire 5000. You can surely check that one for a test.
Hope this will help u both.
