well while checking for laptops i came across the HCL Leaptops(yeah the spelling is correct :P ) . They are offering these laptops @ very competitive rates as compared to Acer & Compaq.

You can check the rates @ Computer Warehouse Online - Product Catalogue

Now what i was wondering is that how good their Build quality and service is ?? coz at that price those laptops are a steal.

Btw i did hear that these laptops were made by Toshiba ( i might be wrong).

Now , Take a look at this baby

HCL U9912-AX8009

Mobile Intel Core 2 Duo T5200 Processor @ 1.6GHz, Intel 945GM Chipset, 1GB DDR2 RAM, 160GB SATA HDD, Super DVD Dual Layer Drive, 14.1 inch Wide XGA TFT, Integrated Blueetooth, 802.11b/g WiFi, LAN, 56K Modem, 4 USB Ports, 6 Cell Battery, Linux
Price : Rs. 40990/-

Thats the price on site.. we can sure get that for 1k or 2k cheaper from NP dealers.

So plz if some1 has already bought a laptop from HCL then comment here about there build quality and service.

ACER 5583 is for 38499+ taxes.
config:-
Core2Duo T5500
512mb ram( heard its upgradable to 1gb)
120gb hdd
bluetooth
GMA 950
linux
DVD writer dual layer
14.1 crystalbrite tft screen
wifi
so its pretty good deal too.:)
 
2 differences

# It comes with 512mb ram (its upgradable but u have to pay fro it)

# 120 gb Hdd instead of 160

btw the proccy is 5500 or 5200 on the Acer laptop ?? ..and yeah acer has always been providing VFM laptops .. just wanted to knw how good is HCL regarding there laptop service and build quality

ya proccy is T5500(1.6GHz) not T5200 as on HCL.
so i think its better to get acer one even if its costly by 1 or 2k.
and also acer5583 has 1.3 mp camera as well.
all in all acer should be a better buy since atleast i dont anyone using HCL leaptops.

Nope...these "leaptops" aren't made by toshiba.HCl does however sell toshiba made laptops in india.
