But, no idea on ASS for Toshiba specially in small town like Jamnagar.

Also, How is Lenovo G50-45 AMD A8-4GB-500 GB hdd-15.6"compare to Toshiba & HP-14"? Though its AMD but seems good option at 25k.
For your or your partner's usage scenario,AMD based Laptops are very good. Even at that price range it has good specs. according to your needs.

You will get ASS for Toshiba at Rajkot,Ahmedabad,Baroda(Vadodara) and Surat, but not Jamnagar.
In that case Rajkot will be the nearest city for you.

I also suggest go for a laptop that has Windows-8/8.1 pre-installed,because eventually you have to load/install an OS,if you buy a DOS based system.

If GNU/Linux (Ubuntu,Fedora,Mint,openSUSE,Mandriva,etc, various distro flavours) is well understood and used by you,then you may go for DOS based system of Laptops.

Thanks for info. Well, my daughter studying in Ahmedabad only so no prob on ASS part at least.

Truly speaking, Toshiba brand not place in mind against brand like HP, Lenovo & Dell.

Any thing equivalent to Toshiba ? even with +2/3 k would be suffice.

First of all a big SORRY, Sir.
I thought she was your girlfriend or wife. You should have mentionedit beforehand.

Well when she is at Ahmedabad,I think she would get a plethora of choices amongst the various notebooks.
Tell her to visit croma store besides Fun Republic near the Iskcon Temple. They sell a good variety of various Laptops & Tablets from HP,ASUS,DELL,LENOVO,etc.
Tell her to visit the store and make a choice. In fact as her Father,you should try to accompany while making a choice and buying within your prescribed budget.

Correct! I already have had in mind though trying to shortlist at least 4-5 models before visiting Croma near (Ex) Fun Republic as well in Himalaya mall, Gurukul.

As I understood, better to go above i-3 intel-3rd gen or A8 AMD processor. Let me educate if any other important figure I must check while visiting shop.

According to my opinion,your daughter could be well of with her work in AMD-A8/A10 based APU's for notebooks. That will be within your budget,and your daughter will fulfill her working needs,by buying AMD based notebooks/laptops.
In that respect HP and LENOVO are categorised for such notebook models.
Yeah,Fun Republic has been changed o some other commercial establishment,Forgot that.
Last visited Ahmedabad on the year 2011.

At a budget friendly price you will always find more options in amd compared to intel

Did you purchase it for your daughter,Sir?
Well,AFAIK, for DELL Inspiron buy with eyes closed. Its based on Intel core-i3(4th Gen.),which is quite decent and will fulfill your daughter's needs.
Don't go by screen touch models,not only will that save some money but screen touch models will be ergonomically weaker/backwards. For touch screen usage scenario always go in for Tablets.

Not yet dear. I could shortlisted only Apple MacBook Air & this Dell Inspiron 3442 model. Thinking to go for i5-4th gen would be more futuristic choice. MacBook having no optical drive crossed my finger.

Searching in HP and Lenovo...(G50/Z50 is good but not portable)... any other?

^ sir, why are you this much confused?

A 2.5 kg laptop isn't heavy. Middle and high school students carry more than that to school/tuition/coaching daily.
lenovo G50/Z50/B590 would suit your budget and your daughter's requirements. A big no to macbook/macbook air. Way underpowered considering the price.

+1,to this wise comment.
In fact,without undermining Apple Macbook Air, I think what [MENTION=145143]SaiyanGoku[/MENTION],said is fully logical.Apple Macbook Air,is obviously used for portability,but at the same time it's more or less an entertainment and browsing device catering to a niche group of customers.But DELL,HP,LENOVO,ASUS,ACER,etc. full fledged laptops ,less in price will easily fulfill your daughter's needs.
It's upto your daughter's and your choice + decision,Sir.
