1) What is your budget? (INR or USD)
35-45k(would like to get it as low as possible)

2) What size & weight consideration (if any) would you prefer?
d. Mainstream; 15" - 16" screen


3) Are there any brands that you prefer or any you really don't like?
a. Like:nothing specific, whoever provide the best config
b. Dislike:acer


4) What are the primary tasks will you be performing with this notebook?
little bit of gaming(DOTA, WOW, CS), browsing, photoshop

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

6) Anything else you would like to say? (eg: local purchase, ASS,matte/glossy finish)
i would like to purchase it locally, will buy 2 units together so hoping if i get some discount :D
i would like to purchase a laptop which will run cool while browsing + music
will not game much
thinking of purchasing an i5 at least for future proof and faster photo shop editing
will ivy bridge really make a difference or sandy bridge will suffice?

actually i need a laptop just for browsing
and photoshop
almost no gaming at all(have desktop for that)
will play dota though(that will not require any gpu)
so basically i want a lappy in which i can use adobe photoshop easily
Should be reliable and run cool as i will be browsing for whole day long
even i was thinking about 15r
but not sure
thinking maybe hp and asus will be more vfm
i don't really need a good gpu and windows :-/
thanks for the suggestions
