Guys how do you clean the display off finger prints and dust no matter what soft cloth I use ,I can't clean off the finger prints and it seems to bend with even the slightest of pressures which worries me .also please enlighten me with any precautions you take to avoid scratches also any covering available to prevent dust from accumulating in between island type keyboards ?
any help is highly appreciated

Get a cleaning kit from local IT market. If you can't find one then get a small piece of cotton cloth(for e.g. the one used in clearing spectacle lenses.) alongwith colin.
You can also use cotton balls or soft tissue papers. And if you sceen bends with pressure , then try placing the laptop screen lid touching/pressing the bed/pillow , when you clean it. That should take care of it.

i M looking for some thing near to 30-35 K ...as I doubt APU will be able to take load for software like Nsys , ProE , AUTOCAD, Catiya ... which are cpu intense progs. and m not a fan of APU either.

My basic concern in battery lyf and CPU , RAM, as storage can b increased by n extrnl one.

For the softwares you are gonna be using, you should definitely opt for intel CPUs, as their math logic process capabilities are unmatched.

I think you should choose a CPU clocked around 3Ghz for good performance.

What's the actual purpose of 1 GB graphics memory?
There's 1 more thing:I already have a PC with 32 bit Windows 7 installed and I heard from a friend that 32 bit applications don't work on 64 bit.
So I need to know similar laptops with 32 bit architecture.
Can I install Win 7 or Win 8 32 bit on a laptop with 64 bit architecture?

 

[GeekyDon]

So, I have a very simple question. I was looking to buy a laptop within a week and was looking for some suggestions. I want a machine which can allow me to do all round work seamlessly. I want to be able to play all the latest games, edit videos and pics, watch movies, surf the internet and listen to music. My budget is 60-70k. I can extend it to 75k if need be. I am not really bothered about memory that much since I already have 4TBs of External Hard Drives. Hence, I'd be fine SSD machines. I am also not particularly concerned about touch displays. I have my eye on the Samsung NP550P5C-S051N. Should I get this one or are there better machines in the market for that price? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

P.S. Also suggestions for any added accessories if needed, please!

Some of my doubts:

1)What's the actual purpose of 1 GB graphics memory?

2)There's 1 more thing:I already have a PC with 32 bit Windows 7 installed and I heard from a friend that 32 bit applications don't work on 64 bit.
So I need to know similar laptops with 32 bit architecture.

3)Can I install Win 7 or Win 8 32 bit on a laptop with 64 bit architecture?

In layman terms : 1GB memory is the gpus frame buffer and primarily it's task is to store texture data for gpu to process and it's generally faster than system ram [ with proper memory type ] and takes less time for the gpu to get the data for process rather than requesting the data from the system ram thus causing low latency and faster processing time overall improving the gaming experience but the amount of data this gpu ram to hold depends also on the monitor resolution, gfx settings used in games and gpu's compute power and for 120P resolution 1GB should be enough but sometime manufacturer do add 1GB/2GB ram with gpus which don't have much processing power to process the data very efficiently .. rather than improving any performance at-all this unused video memory just remain dormnant and is a marketing gimmick only.

Don't listen to your friend .. 64 bit OS can run 32 bit apps very nicely and without any issue at-all and more and more softwares are coming with native 64 bit version nowadays.

the Samsung NP550P5C-S051N is a very good one but if you need better gaming performance have a look at this :

hey guys,
A friend of mine is going to buy a laptop under 30k(he can strech his budget if there is good price-performance/etc jump), so need suggestion on buying a laptop for "office work+surfing online+other normal stuff"
His requirements-
-Good build quality.
-Good quality screen, at least 15"
-Good after sale service and windows 7/8 pre installed(no DOS).
-He prefer a dell laptop, but can opt for other also if that is the best available, but his first preference is dell(don't ask, he's a fanboy)
-should be able to handle the "above" tasks for at least 3-4 years.

This is what I've shortlisted-
