Hey speedyguy,

My friend got HP DV9000t from US for 50k approx.

COnfig:

COre2duo 1.86GHz
1gig ddr2 533
all format dvd writer with lightscribe
17" widescreen (glossy display) with inbuilt camera
Full sized keyborad with numpad
160GB HDD
Vista home premium

[s18000rpm]

get DELL, its a lot better than HCL, & the service support is getting better, i think in few months time a DELL Call Centre (like HP's) will be setup @ Bangalore.

[premsharma]

there is hardly any diff between 80 gb & 100 gb. Check out that core duo & core 2 duo are two different things.

At 44 k, you will get same configurations from all Acer, HCL, Dell HP etc. You have choose between "Gaddha or Khai'

Dell or Acer would be better in that bracket. HCL also not bad but not innovative.

[digiFriend]

core duo is 32 bit. it will not support 64 bit , if you want to switch to 64 in future then
buy atleast core 2 duo. check processor no. because at same speed they have different FSB. lower FSB professor are cheap.
i would suggest DELL. you can customise it at there site.they will clear show detail of each parts.

Is there smaller display [small screen like 12 inch] lappy available from Dell

[VexByte]

One of my friends told me that the only good thing about Dell is their After-Sales-Support and their notebooks will never last for long. Is this true ? He recommended me HP/Lenovo/Toshiba/Acer.

[the_devil]

the dell website says the 6400 laptop can have nvidia 7300 or ati raedon x1400 other than gma 950.so which one should i select(ati or nvidia)can i upgrade the graphics card later
