Even though I don’t prefer Laptops as I think cant play games and upgrading is very difficult, I was searching for a good laptop for my brother here in Hyderabad. I searched all over the internet, but didn’t find a good site that give the latest price and good review. However I am a regular visitor to Tech2.com and found it very good.
After some research I zeroed upon on Dell 1525 which I configured on Dell India site, the best thing is you can configure it and choose what you want, but my brother didn’t want a Dell as his friend had bad experience, actually his friend didn’t get the laptop delivered to him for three months. However I would have gone for this one.
Anyway, as Dell was out of scope now, next brands we were looking for was Lenevo and HP. So we were searching for a place where can see all the brands, and then we saw the ad of E-Zone, City Center, Banjara Hills where they were giving upto 50% discount. However this is the trap made by them, and I was surprised when saw a Compaq laptop having price 82k and they giving discount of some 45%. Could not stop laughing. The same case was with rest of the laptops there.
After this great experience at E Zone we headed to my favourite place the CTC, Parklane near paradise. This is the hub of all computer related items. And we found some shops like Sweta Laptop Bazaar, Laptop World etc. One day went only in the search of laptop and its shop. At the end we shotlisted the Lenevo Y510 series, HP 1301 Tablet PC whose price was around 50k.
Next day my Bro’s friend also joined and we finally decided that we will purchase from CTC. His friend was going to purchase the Sony VAIO CR 24G/B, which he had already decided.
So we reached Sweta Laptop Bazaar in CTC. After spending around 1 hr there my bro took the Lenovo Y410 57Q which had a great configuration, Core 2 Duo processor, 2 GB RAM, NVIDIA graphics and all sorts usual things. Its price came to be 53200. And His friends took the VAIO with upgrading it to 2 GB RAM from 1 GB RAM which was 53500.
However Lenovo was rich in features but VAIO has a class, and too good looking.

hello sir
after a lot of thinking i decided to buy sony vaio ,i read above ur frnd also bought sony vaio ,i read prett bad reviews about sony laptop service ,pls reply if u have any information about it
earlier i had selected dell inspiron 1525 but even their service reviews was very bad,the only point i think is taht in other cases you can catch the person physically in case of dell you cant do that
19/09/2008 at 4:21 AM
hmmm regarding the service dont have much knowledge…only I saw service of Lenevo…..as my bro charger broke down….they replaced the charger quite fast…..but there was another person who was just complaining and complaining about lenevo…..I guess Sony Vaio are good….and u cant trust any of the laptop services here in INDIA….much depends on your luck…but check out about VAIOs heard some of them had that heating issue.

If 9 inch screen is okay for you then Ideapad S9 should be okay, at around 20-21 k.
Even Acer Aspire is there with Linux and I guess that is around 18k

I am lloking for a laptop to use with Ubuntu Linux. I am specifically lloking for something that has no operating system installed or with Free DOS as I do not want to pay for the MS Windows 7/Vista License. ANy suggestions?
23/01/2010 at 3:09 PM
There a lot, Acer aspire and timeline do have free dos option and they are cheaper also because of no OS. Even DELL inspiron series u have same option.
