Well, i can understand wat portable means, u can go for

the HP DV4 1242TX (at Rs.58K) and HP DV4 1240 TX (at Rs.52K)

THe HP DV4 1242 TX and 1240 TX hv the following same configurations:
Processor- C2d 2.0Ghz
RAM- 4GB (in 1242tx) and 3GB (in 1240tx)
HDD:320GB
GPU: 512 MB dedicated nVIDIA 9200M GS
Headphone jack: 2 (supporting dual headphone, same as in DELL's lappys)
=================

But, i Do not understand wat u mean by..
one which no one has
Well, in tat case, get him a Pentium-2 :D:D

=============

Btw, Desiibond
3) Dell Studio XPS13 (13" display, Processor P8600, 3gig ram, 500GB SATA Hard Drive, nvidia 9500M..)

The gpu is DUAL nVIDIA right ?? or jus a single 9500M ?? and is it 256MB gpu ??

thanks but he want it portable and one which no one has

in that budget as quoted to get one which no one has :?: "impossible"

maybe buying an alienware laptop will be more exclusive in India than a mac or others...

Or you can grab an OLPC :D (no one has it in India, or may be very few).

OLPC: One Laptop Per Child.

Sony Vaio P costs a bomb and it's price will surely come down. Check out MSI's Dell's and HP's Netbooks if you want those tiny devices.

Sony Vaio P is not worth 70k. Get the Dell Studio XPS 13 if you can do with less portability. Or get a sub 25k netbook if you want portability.

even 47k is too much for a netbook. Anything about 18k is not at all worth.

Don't forget that netbooks have really really slow processor

Yaa right, i think 47K for a netbook is jus not worth the money.. :(
