try this for current updates.. *www1.ap.dell.com/content/products/category.aspx/notebooks?c=in&cs=indhs1&l=en&s=dhs&~ck=mn

and there are better cos. but in ur budget .. hmm DELL is good,

if u go up in budget IBM, Dell, Apple, Sony, are good.

For those of you who have laptops with 3d cards .... How is the performance in real world gaming?
I want to play Half- Life episode 2 and other new games at decent settings and frame rates but I cannot afford a full fledged gaming laptop, just something below 50-55k

Will an 8600GT do?
How low (graphics card) can I go?

How about if I get it from the USA? Is the warranty valid here?

Thanks a lot

 

[ratedrsuperstar]

my friend is planning to buy a lappy in march-april.will the 9xxx series of video cards be available then.his budget is 45-50k.

is there a company which offers laptops without vista.he basically needs a pc with

the next intel procc.(2-2.2Ghz)
2GB RAM
Nvidia's next series card
2MPX cam(optional)
15 inch display will do.

the first 3 are very imp.

any current brand and model offering the above with current series of hardware.he doesn't need vista he uses ubuntu and red-hat.

HiFi Laptop without Window$

This might just be a semi hypothetical question, and not a serious one, but still:

Can someone give me a list of laptops that don't force you to buy a Windows licence with each book? I am talking about the High End Segment with the following(and I am talking about one which can come out within the next 6 months)

1. Min 2 cores
2. Min 2.4 GHz clock speed per core
3. Min 4 mb L2 cache
4. Min 4 GB RAM DDR2 @ 800 MHz Dual channel
5. Min DirectX 10.1 and OpenGL3 compatible Graphics Card
6. Min 1GHz clock speed of graphics card without OCing
7. Min 1 GB DDR 3 RAM
8. Min 5 Hours battery life
9. Min 320 GB HDD

My Neighbour asked it, and I have NO IDEA why he wants such a good machine

He bought the OEM Version of Windows Vista Ultimate, which he uses in the two computers at his home, his dad's two laptops(one of them is crippled, so no aero), his mom's laptop and his 6 office machines. Thats the reason he does not want Vista, because the OEM version comes with 100 Licences. He offered me an install, but I obviously refused.

 

[ratedrsuperstar]

^lol 5hrs battery that's gonna cost equal to the GC + Procc.

me too want a good lappy without OS or linux.even i have 1000licences of vista(lolz )
