Who cares for the speaker volume of a laptop?

@o.p,for long term usage(at least 5 years),safe choices are limited for your budget.

I would have looked into the followings..

1.Dell Vostro(the current 3*** series)

2.HP Probook(probooks are generally much better than the dv series and extended warranty is easy to buy)

3.Wait,Increase the budget and get a T420.

Toshiba Satellites usually lasts long,but the C series looks pretty bad.

Do not know much about Asus,but their A.S.S seems to have improved a lot in India.
