    compaq would be the best choice.. the basic price would be 29,999 even if u include VAT and installation and handling charges would be under 35k

    For Exactly 35K Rs.... U can get the following configuration in Dell:
    AMD Turion X2 TL50
    15.4"
    512MB RAM
    80GB
    DVD Combo
    Wifi/LAN/Modem
    9Cell battery!
    1Yr Onsite Warranty..
    DOS

    ook in their Website for more Details...
    I think this AMD Turion X2 is better than Intel Celeron or Pentium!!!

    As ur Battery back up is most important...
    Go for 9 cell battery pack watever brand u go...!

    For good battery back up time choose Intel Core based laptops from HP Pavilion. AMD Turion based laptops don't offer good battery backup time.

    Go with the Dell Inspiron 1501 notebook. It is based on AMD's Radeon Xpress 1150 mobile chipset and offers exceptional battery life. Infact, this very platform of Turion X2 and 1150 chipset is the most power efficient platform for budget notebooks. 9-cell battery gives more than 6 hours of battery life in power save mode and 4.5 hours in moderate load. The best thing about this notebook is, it doesn't cost much. It is very affordable at 35k. You can even skip the option for Windows Vista Home Basicand select the n-series config with DOS. If your criteria is max battery life for 35k, this is the only notebook you should consider.
    You could think I'm wrong, but that's no reason to stop thinking.

    Sign a check of the said amount. Give them the Chq, no, fax them over the chq and signed quotation. That should place the order. A Citibank representative will collect the cheque within 2 days. This should be the other way out.
