Acer or Compaq ? Pentium / Celeron or Sempron ? Lappy confusion !
( Another lappy thread ! lol ) Planning to buy a budget lappy ( Max 40K , wil be very happy if I get it less than 40 lol ). No gaming / movie . Programming , email , chat and all .
S/w planning to use
apache ,mysql,php and all those + 3 messengers + AV + Firewall + DW + Editors for programing ( Do I need 512 MB ? )
Planning to use gprs + mobile + bluetooth
I was searching for a lappy ( thanks to sunny,drdrudge,nemi,raven,sr-ultimate,adit,sourabh,infra-red-dude and all - I already disturbed them
) and I saw the reviews by sourabh and adit
So these are the ones I considered
Acer Aspire 3002NLC (33K) , HP Compaq Presario M2202TU (30K), Compaq Presario M2001AL (30K), Compaq Preasario M2015 AP(40K)
First one is sempron , second is celeron , third celeron and last P4 , last one has integrated bluetooth + wireless
Now my doubts - Acer wil give only less battery backups ? I heard P4 generate lot heat . Is it true ? Also heard Compaq's service / spares r very costly . True ?
