battery lasts for 3hours if u use it in power saver mode

in high performance mode u get 2 hours 15 minutes battery backup.....

well those woofer and dolby speakers won't make a big difference on battery life

and sorry but i don't know about that compaq model

i think acer model is good on design also....

got anymore querys??????

@R2K - Sorry for hijacking ur thread...Didn't really felt like creating a new thread 4 Acer 4930 since v were discussing that and I wanted 2 compare 4930 with other laptops....I have been a little inclined 2wards 4930.The only downside in it 4 me is its 14.1'' screen.

My budget is Rs. 40k-45k/-. It will b gr8 if all the forum members can suggest some laptops within this range..

Dell Inspiron 1525 would be a good option for you. It has all you need and fits perfectly in the budget. However, if you up your budget slightly to Rs. 50,500 you can get a Studio 15 instead, which has better graphics with radeon HD3450 and 320GB HDD.

How r Toshiba laptops? Is it a gud and a reliable brand??

I was considering the Inspiron 1525...But after configuring it now I found out that it is no more a VFM....U have 2 buy everything extra (Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium, Carry Case, Mouse etc..)..And then including the taxes, it does exceed my budget...So now I am considering other brands such as Toshiba and Acer...

Can u please also suggest some sites which have detailed reviews abt laptops???

You need to bargain well to make Dell VFM. Check out Studio 15. One member here got it perfectly customised with stuff like backlit keyboard, hd3450, etc on top of default config for Rs. 50,400.

i think Acer aspire 4930 is anyday better than dell inspiron 1525.....but the config u ppl get in India seems to be different............i got acer aspire 4930 with config shown in my siggy

I have also have the same opinion now...Dell 1525 is a lot more expensive than the 4930 after configuring and is not a VFM any more....However I have read that Dell's build quality is better than Acer...

I too have noticed that the same models from various companies have different configuration for different countries...

btw, how is the performance of the 4930???

Great buy. How much did it cost you ? Can you tell where you bought it ? What about price converted to rupees ?

And I think yours is not 4930. Its 4930G. Only the G series has GPUs.

build quality is perfect....................except that dolby speaker which can accumulate alot of dust............but overall look is superb.........the acer logo on the lid(backside of the screen) lights up when the lappy is turned on.......just like in macbook pro

Acer's after sales service suks big time and never ever go with their entry level systems coz these will certainly force you contact their crappy after sales service within the warranty period. 80% sure of that.

Thanks for the advice.....Even I have heard about Acer's crappy after sales service and this is the only reason why I am reluctant 2 get any Acer lappy now...The build quality is also not very gud...But the designs of the Acer laptops r pretty attractive...The company is coming up with really nice looking models...Especially the Gemstone series...
