agreed totally... :)
----------

Btw, Vinoth: if u wanna consider any other lappys as well, the HP's DV5 series (dv5t 1242tx) is a gr8 buy too :)

It comes with a 320GB HDD, 3GB RAM, 512MB nVIDIA 9200GS, Vista at a price of 54K...
(telling u and gunzz, both) coz jus 2 months back i was also planning to buy a lappy but instead changed my mind and got a rig (as in my siggy)... :)
----------

B4 changing my mind, i was researching on laptops for nearly 6 months of all brands, DELL, HP, Compaq, Acer, MSI, Sony Vaio etc.. so i can help u get into a perfect choice thur this thread.. :)
----------

But, yes if the option is jus b/w DELL vs HCl, then buy a DELL with eyes closed (literally speaking).. :) but get a Dell XPS ora Dell Studio lappy for urself and NOT the Inspiron ones, as they look faded away in color.. :(
----------

offtopic: @desiibond: dude, i finally purchased the Samsung 2233SW LCD at Rs.10.6K (thanx for helping me out ) :D

Cheers n e-peace.....

Hello Guys! I've planned to buy a new Acer laptop... 5738G... It's got AMD Turion™ X2 dual-core processor RM-75 (1 MB L2 cache, 2.20 GHz, DDR2 800 MHz, 35 W) / AMD M780G Chipset / ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 4570 with 512 MB dedicated VRAM / 3 GB DDR2 RAM / 15.6" HD / DVD Writer/ 320 GB HDD / BlueTooth/ MultiCard Reader / Gigabit LAN / WebCam/ 4 x USB Ports / Dolby Stereo Speakers/HDMI/ Fingerprint Reader etc. But many of my friends scoff me for choosing Acer. They accuse that Acer's got the worst build quality, and that it crashes too often. I've got 3 extra choices- HP DV61211AX (or) HP DV1110AX (or) Dell Studio 15. I'm utterly confused on choosing the right lappy. Please show me a way outta this maze.
