Laptops Budget Notebook

Okay, my dad just fell in love with the Inspiron 1420 I'd ordered for myself and now its gone :cry:

I basically don't need a laptop on a day to day basis nor do I need one for college yet (Mech Engg :p), my primary purpose is at my live gigs where I'm DJ'ing, I need a laptop to sync directly with my controller and turntables.

Not much power needed, a 1.5Ghz processor will do, RAm I'll anyway upgrade to 2GB, HDD, even a 40GB drive will do cause all my music is on a 250GB LaCie.

I don't wanna spend cause its gonna go thru a rough use and I plan a Macbook late this year.

Budget is 20k, I'm looking at this for now, any other opinions?

Cheers!

Edit : I can push the budget to max 24k if I'm getting a T2xxx.

@ andrew - Thanks mate, saw that thread :D
 
I would point out the Lenovo 3000 G410. I was quoted Rs. 22,000 for that in Nehru Place, New Delhi.

1.86 GHZ Celeron - 64-Bit
40 GB Hard Disk
512 MB DDR2 RAM
CD/DVD Writer (Dual Layer support)
Looks like a brick and has 14.1 inch screen.

I'm planning to buy it in the comming month provided the Compaq v3225 AU with AMD turns out to be a single core lappy and not dual-core as has been told to me.

Oops! Actually the Hard Disk is 80 GB. :ashamed:
 
Anish, get another 1420 man - I had seen a bunch of notebooks before getting the Inspiron and the build quality/finish of the Dell surpassed all others. Just a reminder, because I'm sure you know that :)

Yep, the Inspiron I just got is magnificent in terms of finish! Reason I'm going on a very tight budget is so that I can pickup a Macbook for myself by Christmas :D
