x1300 is available on the customise menu

Wraith - go for the Compaq V3033 AU or the V3029 AU configs.

Amazing value for money.

If you are lucky u can get an HP nx6125 wiht turion x2 proccy and geforce 6100 gfx 100gb hdd, 512mb ram and a dvdwriter, to top it all a biometric fingerprint scanner for all inclusive 46k. Althoug availability is not high but the given 2 days time a dealer can pull up one for u.

Oh yeah another 512mb stick in this and its Vista capable.....

mjkn79 · Sep 20, 2006

^^^^^^
Ooops just one update its not an X2 proccy it will be a 64bit 2ghz though

If you are getting the DELL config @ 55K including taxes, then its a very good deal indeed!!

If you are very good at haggling, you may be able to bring the price down even further!!!

Wraith · Sep 21, 2006

Well guys i ordered the Inspiron 6400 laptop today...it comes with Win XP home edition...shld i format n install XP Pro or is the Home edition good enuf for regular use??

Sandy · Sep 21, 2006

Home edition is more than enough for most things

Amol,
do you have any idea how one can differentiate between the v3033 AU and the v3029 AU.... by checking the notebook it self?
