thanks...but do u have this?
I see in comments that it has nearly no A.S.S in india for laptop, and strict viewing angle
i need a good wbcam and speakers too and build quality
I know about Fujitsu, a very well known brand (I love those Fujitsu General/ETA General - or Ogeneral AC's and have them) and i like the infinity logo and looks cool on the laptop...

I wanted to how reliable are SSDs these days? What life expectancy do they have?
I mean is it a good idea to get Laptops coming exclusively with SSD as storage option?

Question is Obsolete, they have lesser cases of failing than mech. HDD's(most of servers use them IMO.)

It's brilliant idea to get SSD based Laptops but only problem is storage space that you will run out of.. (Not to mention you may have to sell a kidney or a lung for that. )

Thank you for answering my query.
We always have external HDDs for songs, movies etc so I ain't worried about running out of space.

Always welcome...
If you want a SSD laptop only then you may like to buy an average laptop, pop out its HDD & get that Sleek Speed Demon..

[Chaitanya]

Thanks but the credit for that definition goes to guys behind DIGIT mag.. (me copy pasted)

@Everyone

Just wanted to know that do you guys mostly run your laptop on power(plugged in) with battery removed or battery attached??

 

[Chaitanya]

^Idea of removing battery is ok for thermals but no one cares to do so

I switch off till batt is 25% & then again..

 

[rouble]

I switch off till batt is 25% & then again..

What does that mean?? Do you wait for the laptop to get fully charged and then run it??

 

[Chaitanya]

No i let discharge & then charge it again..

 

[rouble]

Okay..but what do you do after the laptop is fully charged..Do you remove it from power and run from battery or do you leave it connected and run through power only??

 

[Chaitanya]

Okay..but what do you do after the laptop is fully charged..Do you remove it from power and run from battery or do you leave it connected and run through power only??

Remove power & let it run on battery
& then cycle continues .. . (charge & discharge )

 

[rouble]

And do you play games on battery too if you do play??

 

[powerstarprince]

I don't play graphic intensive games.. Just few games which would bring my cpu temps to the lower 60s

 

[Chaitanya]

And do you play games on battery too if you do play??

Currently playing Skyrim (though i'm Counter strike folk ) & answer to your question is yes i do play on battery too.

then you are only limited to some browser based flash games but then again some of them can become very cpu intensive - if you want to keep things cool do get a cooling pad.
