Compaq comes with Vista only. Acer comes without OS. I suggest you can buy Acer for 20k and then buy XP Home OEM for 3.5k

Zenith Director for 25k
It has DVD writer, 15.4" screen

Are zenith laptops good ?? I mean they sell lappies at very competitive price and hence i was asking. Also it would be great if you people could list the model no of whatever laptop you suggest. That would help me in getting a know how on the specifications.

Me and my cousin have brought 3 Acer Laptops till date which myt cousin took outside of India to a remote place near Australia and it seems that its working flawlessly and its been quite some time. I would definitely recommend it. However the OS they provided on it was some weird Linux Distro.
