Anyone using/reviewed HCL Leaptop T39 machines? Seems great configuration matching Dell (comes without vista, who needs it anyway!!!). The leaptop seems to combine good looks and better feel than Dell. At 42K in the online store, seems a fair price and machine
Also anyone from Mumbai, please recommend a good laptop dealer (Acer, toshiba, HP etc - with good discounts than in authorised show rooms??) in Mumbai based on your experience, maybe in Lamington road etc.. with whom you have done purchases!!!

Anybody using Linux (Say Ubuntu 8.10 or 9.04) on Dell Studio laptops? Any issues of drivers for audio, display etc?? I intend going in for Dell Studio 15 and have to use Linux on it.
Hi all!
I had purchased an Acer Aspire 4520 (AMD Athlon 64, 160GB HDD, 1 MB RAM) in Nov 07. It has been sparingly used and is in mint condition. The original command line based Linux distro supplied with it has been overwritten and now it dual boots to Ubuntu 7.10 and Win XP (license expired...
My friend went in for the Acer 4520 as he earlier had an acer lappy for about two years without any issues. As for build quality, the current gemstone design looks great - plus has a sturdy feeling too. And at 30K one cant really ask for better. I have checked out/used Compaq 6608AU (34K) and HP...

Thanks Akshaya, solidasraf for your inputs! Well, 50 - 50 recommendation :o. I do own a Compaq Presario x1000 for the last three years - which has been pretty reliable, and touch wood, no issues at all! But I do feel it is a bit bulky! Have not seen/used a Dell Lappy - but I guess at nearly 3kg+...
