Guys.. I want to buy a laptop which is portable, lightweight and has a good battery life.. It should also be capable of playind full HD (1080p) videos with ease.. so an HDMI port is important..
But i hav got major doubts..

Should i go for the new CULV processors from intel.. the inspiron 13z has em..
or should i go for the normal core 2 duo.. which the hp dv3 has..

Also i would like to have at least win7 home premium in the bundle..
And the price-bracket will be from 40k to 45k..

Plz suggest some laptops to me guys..

The processor alone does not affect the battery life of a laptop. There are various other factors such as the chipset used, the graphics card included, the type and size and speed of the hard disk used, the screen size and brightness and resolution, WiFi, Bluetooth, no. of USB ports and Network ports etc.

Also, don't go by the battery life quoted by the manufacturers alone. They are measured using a tool called MobiMark 2007 which has the ideal test conditions way different from actual usage conditions. For more details, refer this: *www.nytimes.com/2009/06/25/technology/personaltech/25pogue.html

Manufacturers need to wake up and quote the battery life under actual working conditions and go the cell phone way mentioning both usage time and stand-by time of the battery life.

very good link provided, very informative.
