1) What is your budget?

35k

2) What size & weight consideration (if any) would you prefer?

14 - 15.6 "


3) Are there any brands that you prefer or any you really don't like?

None as such.

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

General uses of an engineering student i.e constant downloading of stuff, watching movies
, lots of Web browsing...light gaming, multitasking.


6) Anything else you would like to say? (eg: local purchase, ASS,matte/glossy finish)

battery life is very important. The lighter /sleeker the better.
DOS is okay as i have win 7 ....win8 sucks big time.
I stay in Mumbai, so..Lamington?
Or online?
