bluesapphire Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 Go for Hp or Dell...u can also look at Sony viao, Toshiba and Lenovo...lenovo though is a chinese brand is good and associated with IBM so nothing to doubt about....In Dell u can visit the site and configure it as per ur own needs so thats better...And in touchscreen of Hp they are good but u wont get much options in it..its better to with simple one...and if u have a good Desktop computer my suggestions would be go with a smaller screen i.e.12/13" that will be good...even i bought 15" Hp pavilion my father told me to go for smaller one but i didnt and now m realizing the mistake....now its looks bulky to me...

trojan_virus Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 @ trojan' date=' you might be owning a few gadgets , but they are the best. Indicating towards E90, I always wanted to buy it since its launch, but my calculations went wrong. I thought I would wait for a while after its launch for prices to come down, but nothing happened since. I may still buy it, though E71 is available now at almost half price.Thanks for suggestion , DELL XPS is indeed a fine laptop. I guess it has Nvidia Geforce graphics card on board. I saw HP 676, it is one hell of a laptop. One thing about Dell is that they do not have local support. [/quote'] Yea i bought it last dec , arnd 34500 . Love it 2 its core . Well i personally dont like hp , all my friends using Hp complain a lot , it heats up very fast . Well Dell Servicing in under HCl , if u complain of anything , a guy will show up in 24 hrs of the complaint and repair and if it cant b repaired then they will replace it . And Xps has Nvidia 8600Gt . Sony Vaio just has looks , n expensive also. I am using Dell P4 laptop for last 5-6 years . Still works very fine , just replaced hdd once . though it costed me over 1.5 lakhs when i bought it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speed Posted August 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 Thanks BS, I am going to avoid, Sony, Lenevo & Toshiba. My choice is between Dell & HP. Ive been on DELLs site, but theres too much choice, I could not pin point a suitable model. Ultra portables have their convenience, but for now I would look towards the basic 15" screen. Yes, touch screens are low on options, but I like the concept, can you give some nice model with touchscreens? @ Trojan, thanks, E90 still retails for around 33k. Can the front VGA cam. be activated without making a video call? I think Dells local support is dependent on Wipro. Did you check out HP 676, I think this also has Nvidia. But Im concerned post warranty service by Dell, as each visit by engineer costs 1000/- labour only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speed Posted August 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 True , Compaq comes cheaper than HP. So, Hp offers local service & support! Is HP better than Dell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speed Posted August 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 Now Im inclined towards either DELL XPS or HP 676, but am unable to make up mind. Any idea about Toshiba? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trojan_virus Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 Toshiba is gud brand but the models launched in india arent very gud , if u can get1 from US then its best as u can configure it acc to urself . Buy DELL . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speed Posted August 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 No, Im going to buy from here only. Im very much concerned about after sales service from Dell, whenever I have problems with my PC or Laptops, local dealer really obliges, this cant be the case with Dell.
