Dude, you're talking DDR2. I'm talking DDR3 1066. Apple store has good chix? Ahh!
Anyways I'm getting from Newegg most prolly, so only need to go for buying the warranty.

^^Superczar - changed a friends' macbooks memory and HDD, aware of this. Thanks though

Just checked out the Lenovo U110. Sucks. Build of keypad mediocre. Crappy large keys, piano black finished. Too bulky. Lucky I never even considered Lenovo.

Updates:
New Macbook and Macbook Pro with me, as is the 13.3-inch new Vaio SN26GN.
Bad Impressions:
Sony's build sucks. The 1.15 lakh Vaio is worth it, this is not at 75K.
13.3 Macbooks screen sucks, horrible viewing angle.
Mac book pro superb; but I cannot spend 2000$ and do not want 15.4-inches.

I'm now looking at ASUS' U6Gs; at 12.1-inches it may be what I'm looking for. Pricier than the XPS M1330, but the build may be worth it.

Anyone comment on ASUS' notebook reliability; of course this is a high-end model.

^ Did you turn up the brightness on the screen?

is that available in India? AFAIK, the U6VC is the model here. And pretty much above your budget
