1) What is your budget? (INR or USD) 30-35K

Movies, MS Office, Music, A few games (like FIFA , Football Manager etc..), Skype, AutoCad, Photoshop etc..

5) Any typical configuration in your mind you're eying for ?
Nothing in my mind. Want the best possible spec for such a modest price range.


4) Are there any brands that you prefer or any you really don't like?
No preference. Brand should have decent after sale service.

6) Anything else you would like to say?

  • Resolution - best possible
  • Battery back up ( normal (3-4hrs) / extended (5-7hrs)) : 5-6 hours should be good enough
  • Purchase place ( Online (eg - flipkart, infibeam) / Local / Abroad (do mention the country) ) - Flipkart mostly
  • Would probably need a front cam for skype

This may sound stupid, but can I have the same laptop with Windows 7 instead of Windows 8 as mentioned in the specs? Else, I would like to go with laptops with Win7 installed. Not too keen on using Win8.

Also, what are your views on this - *www.flipkart.com/samsung-np350v5c-...WUUG&ref=0d1530ab-d7f0-4939-9c5e-cfae2eb14686
