1) What is your budget? (INR or USD)

20k - 30 k INR ( the less the money the more good it is )

2) What size & weight consideration (if any) would you prefer?
Mainstream; 16" - 18" screen


3) Are there any brands that you prefer or any you really don't like?
a. Like: Lenovo , Sony , Toshiba , Samsung (Don't want any type of chrome os ), Acer , AMD, HP and Intel

b. Dislike: Dell , Ibm ,

4) What are the primary tasks will you be performing with this notebook ?

1. Ms office
2. Autocad latest version
3. Vmware
4. Internet Browsing, skype, online voice and text chatting.
5. If sometimes playing mid level games
6. Every Day computing



5) What screen resolution(s) & type (glossy/matte) would you prefer?

good screen and excellent resolution and especially very very cool for the eyes because i have high index spects.


6) Anything else you would like to say?

1. Excellent battery life and battery backup

2. I am going to install windows 7 ultimate but it should be able to run windows 8 smoothly.

3. Good navigation controls and good keyboard.

4. It should not have any hardware and software problems

These are the points which i know that a good laptop should have and if i am missing any point please remind me...


Question:

"Will a 64 bit os is best or 32 bit os ??? ( i think that there is shortage of 64 bit software )"?


Thank you.

There is no shortage of 64bit software once you switch you'll learn to live with it ;) I'd recommend 64bit for a 4gb machine.
Dislike intel :eek: (i guess you are referring to intel proccy's right?)
Consider g6 2005ax should suffice your needs and is available for 31k locally
Ps - suggested this only because of your intel dislike :eek:

Budget is not a problem but if we get good laptop in less money why go for extra bucks.
