I bought two XPS 1530s about 2 weeks back. No discounts on the laptops. However, the laptop bag was given for Rs 1000/- in place of original cost of Rs 2600/- odd. You can see the config here. The lappy has been delivered. Engineer is coming tomorow for installation. Any other querry, lemme know.

When I placed an order for Dell Inspiron 1420 in Sept 2007, I got 3 years Complete Cover for just Rs.5,500 extra. I am placing an order for my company for a Vostro 1000 laptop. I did not want Complete Cover and just the Warranty for 3 yrs. He said 6,000 initially. Then I told him about the offer I got for the 1420. Then bang! Immediately the 3 yr warranty became Rs.4,500.
You just need to bargain with the salesman to get a better offer. They are at free will to reduce the price. Beyond a point they will offer reduce the price further to part with some of their incentives.

y r u waiting for the engineer ? You could just tell them that u'd do the so called 'installation' yourself. The 'engineer' would just need a signature from you.

WTF??? Visited the HP/Compaq site last evening, and to my surprise, most of the models have been discontinued!!! Except for 3-4 odd models, everything else's off the list! I'm shocked!!! I was just about to pick up the v6608au, and now this's happened! Check it out: *h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/in/en/ho/WF09a/1090709-1116637-1116665.html

The webpage for discontinued Compaq Presario laptops leads to 404.
I don't think that v6608au model has been continued. It is available in Mumbai for Rs. 32,750/- with bag. I purchased two units of the same yesterday (for a friend and my aunt). True VFM.
Any one buying the Eee PC?

I need to buy a mid-range Laptop. Primary usage will be home usage (internet , light gaming , office , movies ..etc) and in particular Flight Simulators (should run MS Flight Sim X )
Between HP and Dell , somehow i feel like going for HP - because i am unsure about ordering online from Dell. Also i am cautious about stuff like warranty (what if someone goes wrong, who do i go to types
). Will be in mumbai.
Also someone suggested a Acer Inspire 5520. How is it ?
I am an AMD fan so will prefer and AMD lappy. Also since i don't have any high end work, AMD is good VLM. However if C2D gives a better deal , i am open to it. Kindly suggest

Purchased the Compaqs from PC Guide. Best deals on HP and Compaq laptops there, good place to buy them.
I'm no more excited about the Eee PC. The launch is so late, new Eee PCs will be released in a few months from now. Also the price of Rs. 18,000/- is bit too high. I will wait and get it at distributor price (around 15k). They (ASUS India) had a program called Campus Elite Organization and I was selected in that from my college, so I enjoy this privilege. I guess it is time to make the most of it...

How to know the speed of a DDR2 SDRAM module in my Dell Inspiron 6400?
I am planning to upgrade my RAM and am not sure if the RAM in my laptop is 533 Mhz or 667 Mhz.
And also irrespective of that can I go for the additional module at 667 Mhz?

Hey Saurabh you can get the EEE for rs 15,901 from Samtron Computers, Sion.
Are you really thinking of getting one? BTW which laptop do u currently have?
And which college are you from? Mumbai?

Yeah, I saw that on CompareIndia. Did you personally verify if that's inclusive of taxes?
I currently have Dell Inspiron 640m and the older Acer Aspire 3002. The thought of third laptop for personal use is very frightening but I really need something like an Eee PC. I've spent too much on laptops in the last 8-9 months that I don't think I should spend another 16k. So, I'm not sure if I should get the Eee PC.
I'm in VJTI (final year).
Are you considering to buy the Eee PC?

Yep. But i dont think it ll be feasible 4 me. Cos this is gonna be my 1st lappy. The eee is a lil too underpowered for my needs. Also i think that the Acer 4315 wxnci 4 20.8k (cel m 530 +960gl + 512mb ddr2)is a good option. What do u say?
Btw r ur placements done? Wich branch?
