OK now i went through a lot of threads of ppl who asked pretty much similar questions on this budget and i found out that some of the asus models were being recommended more. I went through those and found Asus K53SM-SX010D / 2nd Gen Ci5/4 GB/750 GB/2GB graphics DOS: Flipkart.com: Compare, Review Asus Notebook as the best. THe question i wanted to ask was i hardly see anyone using Asus laptops much, true they do make decent motherboards but in hte laptop division all i see normally is dell or sony with ppl i know. So is the service of Asus decently widespread throughout the country? Il be joining MBA in mid june and i want a laptop which will run me through 2 yrs without any problems if possible and if any do occur a fast service since pretty much most of the work is done on a lappy and its impossible to do without one.
Also if asus is the best choice then is there any model which has same or better graphics than the K53SM-SX010D and has a 17 inch screen? or can support a better resolution? If no then is there any others from one of the other brands with decent graphics which has those in 50k budget? Or is K53SM-SX010D my best bet in this budget?
Also any suggestions or a wireless headset to go with it which comes at a decent price?
