For Desktop at 17k, AMD assembled PCs are really good

Here goes the config

1. Processor: Athlon II X2 240 2.8GHz @ 2.8k
2. Motherboard:
Biostar A785GE @ 3.6k (integrated HD 4200 Shared Graphics, no sideport memory)
3. Ram: Kingston 2 GB DDR2 800 MHZ @ 2.3k
4. HDD:
Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 500GB @ 2.5k
5. Cabinet: Zebronics Bizli@1.5k with inbuilt PSU

6. Dsiplay: Samsung 17" LCD monitor @ 5k (Approx) [Not sure]
7. keyboard/Mouse: anything @ 0.6k

total is 18.3k. But there is a high chance that you get them in less price in street.

And for Laptop, @ 37k, go for the Acer or HP Compaq. There are some Asus laptop available at this price with C2D 5750, 2GB Ram and 3470 Graphics card. Check that also.

160 GB hard disk can also be used. Price will be around 1.5k.

Go for DVD writer from LG or Samsung. Price is around 1k.
And Intel Dual core is the worst performer of all the dual core processors. Its performance is even poorer than normal Athlon X2 Processors. Athlon II X2s are far better performer than any Du

Is something wrong with your keyboards "?" and "!" and "@" and "#" and "$" and "%" keys..? We can suggest keyboards here too.

No, C2D will not "be better". For basic office needs, the AMD build suggested is good enough. It is great value-for-money. You can easily get a DVD-ROM for 1.2-1.3K.
