I have provided all info.
@Ganesh, Thanks for PM. Did you buy the same config or the config with fast processor. When did you buy and how much it costs you.
azaad_shri75 said:yes there is a differenece in core duo and core 2 duo, latter has slight architecture difference(technically I too dont know much) and has 64bit support which is and would be default platform for future apps.
if possible go for single 1 gb memory stick, it would be easy for future upgrade,
go for home premium,
and how have you selected hdd partition, as in dell you have no freedom to have custom ones,
I think the days are not far when we could assemble notebooks to our own choice and at much cheaper price.
manoj_299 said:I can partition HDD myself as I talked this issue in Dell they said you can partition yourself your HDD. You can customize as needed partition yourself. Yes it support maximum 2 GB Memory i.e. 1 Gb x 2. not going for home premium because it would need more RAM as Dell recommends 2 GB RAM for this. Core Duo Doesnt support 64 Bit?????? I think that AMD Processor in 1501 model support 64 Bit and this Intel dont? AMD is cheaper with 64 bit support and dual core processor. Please check if Core Duo support 64 bit or not?
manoj_299 said:Today the Dell Man Keerthan again called me asking cheque but I finally decided to wait some more and collect money to extend budget for core2duo at least. I asked that man to give RAM 1 GB stick but he said Vista Need dual channel Stick so he cant help it. Thanks Ganesh I read your blog, it helped me so much.

azaad_shri75 said:what does he think, by saying so, insist for 1 gb stick.
Sourabh said:@abhinav_bipnesh: You can configure Dell Inspiron 1520 with the same config as the ASUS G1S-A1. Surprisingly, You can get it for cheaper than the ASUS. So, go with the Dell. You can save another 4-5k by upping the RAM to 2GB after purchase on your own. If your budget allows, get 3-year complete cover on the Dell.
