Hey thanks for recommendation. Looks nice but in one of the review i find that this modal have following shortcomings

Oversensitive touchpad, a bit bulky, S-Video out cable length is shorter than your palm, SATA mode set to ATA instead of AHCI resulting in extremely long boot up time

Thanks buddy. I have one more query for Dell 1520 should I go for nVidia 8600m graphics card. Or integrated graphics card would do fine. There is a difference for rupees 7000 for nVidia 8600m. Does it worth the money. I not a gamer.

Not really, if you are not a gamer 8400 GM is nore than enough for u , I would say just think for upgrading the RAM to 2 GB / and if possible then a better C2D Processor...

So for me, Dell 1520 with C2D T7250 + 2 GB RAM + 9 Cell Battery and if possible then do try to get extendted warrenty for 3 years complete cover which really helps as after 1 year if any thing goes wrong, u will really have to pay a lot to get thing right because of lack of Local tech support for notebook platform so its always better to have a 3 years complete cover from Company it self...
