    Re: Toshiba Laptop I'm not sure but not many people go with Toshiba now because there is servicing problem for it. It probably has very few service centers (probably only near a few big cities) in the country and so the service is not fast. This may be the reason that there are not many reviews...

    I would suggest you to also consider Sony VPCEB16FG for Rs. 49,990/- because it contains a BETTER GPU than Dell Studio 15 has to offer. Refer- *www.notebookcheck.net/Mobile-Graphics-Cards-Benchmark-List.844.0.html However if you have had issues with service then I suggest not to go with Acer.

    Since HP's India site is not updated, I can't comment upon the same. I have Vaio CW26FG and I'm pretty happy with my buy and would suggest you the same. But it contains i5-520 as against i5-540 which you have mentioned, but that won't make a huge difference, just 130MHz of extra clock. Also it...

    Thnx. The laptop cost me INR55000, however my friends say that I could have got it for less (MRP is 57990). It is a superb laptop. Great finish, decent in weight, superb in performance, thnx to i5 and nVidia GT330M, 4GB DDR3 RAM. Build quality is good. It is not as sleek as you would expect...

    Well I think that DDR3 would be better at this point specially because in coming months DDR2 will only get more expensive. Buy DDR2 only if you are sure u might not need any upgradations later. Else you'll have to pay more than you save now. I say it by personal experience. Last time I wasn't...
