Its an awesome rig.. Pity that the seller accepts only wire transfers.. not paypal..!! With paypal you at least have some protection..!prankie said:
The specs are good, but the GFx card is a tad old.. Anyway, I'd prefer to make a direct purchase when such a large amount is involved..

whats "overrrr"hackers2005.3721 said:
but in the instruction manual its written ......to discharge ...for along life.....not include in 6 months warranty..........??
AND just use the lion battery???
Man let me tell you one thing just today I got the battery replaced..because the one which I bought suddenly died after after I think 2 uses???? Thanks to warranty. I think its because of overheating, my lapy is just too hot even after a half an hour use. and the vendor says the previous battery malfunctioned due to motherboard failure???lurk...he even added the overheating problem could also burn the CPU??
One thing I know that the lapy is burning my laps and about its internal I dont know?
I there any way I could save the old lapy from sudden " Burning"
recently I have emptied my pocket on:
1) 80 gb hdd (previous one was giving :"Disk read error")
2) a keyboard (it was too costly, but was that much important also)
3) a ram ( as ofcourse the previous one.." dumping the physical memory")
4) a battery....a new battery which worked only for two uses....and today I got it replaced......
Now I dont want to go for a motherboard or a processor.

I'm confused in buying Dell laptop model 6400 & 1420. 1420's festures and benefits are much more than if compared with 6400 but Just I have habit in working with 17" Monitor so just confused that 14.1" screen for Dell 1420. Will it be too small viewing? This 14.1 Inch push me back to buy 15.1" 6400 model. I am very confused. And also please tell me Difference between Normal monitor they Provide VS Truelife VS Ultrasharp with Trulife....Please suggest and help me out

If u move with ur laptop everyday.... then get 14" only!!!
else 15"... I have 6400... and feels little heavier than my frnds lenevo! Movie watching will be better in 15"!
Regarding Truelife... they have better contrast so that u can watch better even in daylight!! generally u go for this.... it will be useful if u use the laptop in outdoor! and ultrasharp... they have higher resolution!! i bought mine with truelife and completely satisfied

how about ultra portable laptop
I am getting it for Rs 35,000.00
*i197.photobucket.com/albums/aa90/himtuna/020113c.jpg
Config : 800Mhz Processor (celeron), 364mb RAM, 40 gb hdd.....mY Father is
*i197.photobucket.com/albums/aa90/himtuna/020109d.jpgdying to get this and is even ready to pay Rs. 35k for this second hand lapy..He wants it for online shares trading.....is it a worth buy....?
I told him that we will get a lapy 13" at least with much higher config in about 40k.but he wants compact..giving reasons that an O2 costs almost the same. How to make him understand that this wouldnt be a worth buy! But if he decides he will buy it. Is there any other ultra mobile laptop under 40k.

How can I save VAT? They said charges always exclusive VAT. WIll I have to bargain with them? "Ergonomics - Not Great!!" Arent you satisfied with Dell? I dont want to go with other brand because no fit budget and want onsite warranty. And also Dell is one of the premier brand in Market.

As u buy directly from DELL... The VAT is not applicable!
So they would ask for a letter stating that u r not going to resell it - I think that wont be a problem so u save VAT 4% i.e. approx.4K
I own 6400 and i like it except that pure white coating over the edges wen i open the laptop! I too had dilemma wen i was planning to buy ... but now satisfied as i saved a huge amt over HP!
Yes! DELL's Service is No.1 that is wat i heard frm the users!
wat model u have planned to get>>??
