You can buy an Inspiron with HD4330 gfx, but i dunno if it is good enough for your work.

I saw that all but can't I upgrade to gtx260 or better .

^laptops arent that flexible to upgrade. Plus you are looking to shoot costs above 50k with good graphics in mind + better processor.

I'd only buy a laptop for its only benefit I see -> Portability.
I don't need that as of now so Ill remain anti-laptop

And anyway, AFAIK, GTX260M is simply a rebrand of the 9800GTM. Agreed with Xeno.

This laptop is one of the most powerful laptops available at a unbeatable price. It is having the latest Penryn processor (1066MHz fsb) all the other laptops even with higher price range as 45k r only having C2D 6500 with 800 MHz FSB. It is also offering the 9600M GS Gfx card. Performance is like the Desktop 9500GT.

I know Zenith is not as famous as the other brands mentioned in the thread, they are one of the oldest laptop/Desktop manufacturer in India. One of my friends got it last week and is really happy with it. we are able to play Stalker, Bioshok and Mass Effect with higher setting in this machine.
