Hello everyone. I will be buying a laptop (probably in april, may).
I should
1. be able to play games(big ones like NFS carbon, counterstrike, rise of nations, zero hour etc), so must have a decent vedio card.
2. only intel pentium (dual core or core 2 Duo or for the cheapest case pentium M)
3. minimum 1GB ram
4. As large hard disk as possible.(minimum 120)
5. I should also be able to run analysis softwares like Fluent, ansys and Matlab(i think i can run them in 1.66GHz also. if it is greater than 1.66GHz i will be more happy)
6. should be comfortable for watching movies (lots of them).
7. only Windows Xp. I dont want vista.(but if no other option then ok vista)
8. Battery life not a constraint and so is the weight.
9. Blue tooth, wifi, and other accessories are not compulsary, but basic ethernet card, modem are needed.
I have worked with vista and i dont like it. In my friends laptop we tried to remove vista and install xp. but we were not successful. I prefer XP. The main requirement is movies and games with little programming and analysis. It should have high speed ethernet card(high speed lan for downloading and playing).Rs. 35000 is maximum(The dead maximum is Rs.40000 beyond which i could not dream). also need a good warranty within this range. Can anyone advice me which model to purchase and their price tags...........
