but what about heating problem in inspiron 1525...
is it worth buying...
also one thing which I forgot to mention about inspiron 1420...
in these three which should I consider?

 

[MetalheadGautham]

1525 >> 1420 if you don't plan to buy a GPU.
I haven't heard of any heating issues so far in 1525.

can I add GPU later in 1525.. is there any slot available??
and why not Vostro???

Get the Inspiron 1525. And nope, you can't add a GPU later.

Inspiron 1525 starts at Rs.36900 according to the Dell Website. Rs.900 here would be the delivery charge.

According to what I saw on the Customization page, the cost of the basic Inspiron 1525:
Price inclusive of delivery but exclusive of tax : Rs 33,642.00

With a C2D T5750 and 2 GB DDR2 RAM, this one is more than enough for your requirements. MATLAB can take a lot of time for intensive calculations on a low end system, but I think the Inspiron can handle it pretty well.

BTW, I would recommend you to opt for the Widescreen WXGA+ screen, which will cost you an additional Rs.1615. It gives a resolution of 1440x900. It'll be worth it. You could do well with the higher screen real estate.
