Looking to buy a laptop with Intel Core i3 processor, about 500 GB HDD, 4 GB RAM and a backlit Keyboard(This is a must)
It will be mostly for browsing, watching CBT videos, YouTube, casual coding, Webex/Skype sessions, Video capturing. No gaming whatsoever. Should be able to run at least a couple of VMs.
Going to be using this both at work and home.
Should be business quality laptop, with good build quality. Expecting it to run without issues for at least 5 years.
The laptop is going to replace a Dell Studio 1555 laptop, which had met all the above requirements charmingly, except only recently when it started giving issues with random freezes. (This is about 7 year old laptop.)
Currently, I am looking at the Dell Latitude 3450 listed on Amazon for roughly under 27k. I would have gone for this eyes closed, except that it doesn't come with the backlit keyboard. Dell are quoting close to 40k for the same with backlit keyboard.
I am also looking for people working in Dell, who can possibly get me better discount on this quote.
