Hi all,

My dad wants to buy a netbook with the following requirements:
What's your Budget? Less than or equal to Rs. 13k

What will be your primary usage for the notebook be? Surfing(Wi-fi/Data-card), Tally 7.2, Tally ERP 9, MS Office

What size and weight considerations do you have? Must be easily Portable (10 to 13 inch screen)

Any brand that you prefer, or any brand that you detest? No brand preferences

Any other considerations? Should support Win XP any edition(not necessarily pre-installed)
I have gone through mobile_user's thread here with same price range.

Below are some shortlisted ones:

Samsung N100-MA05IN Netbook (Black) - 12983 (Flipkart)

MSI U135 (Black) U Series Netbook - 13820 (Flipkart)

Asus X Series X101H (Black) Netbook - 11962 (Flipkart)

Asus Netbook 1015PX Laptop(Metallic Black) - 13000 (Novelty - Goregaon)


Please suggest which one to buy and from where(Online/Mumbai Dealers preferred).

Any other suggestions are also welcome! :)

Thanks in advance !!!!

Wish you all a Happy & Prosperous New Year !!! :)
 
got msi U135 for a friend from letsbuy early this december for 12.8k with free 3G data card of alcatel worth 1599Rs , it was an awesome deal and the netbook is rock solid, runs at 1.83Ghz as its factory OCed by MSI. if you can manage to get such a deal then its the best .

else asus 1015PX is also a great option

Thanks for your reply....

MSI's product page doesn't mention about factory OCing. Also, the battery is 3 cell which will reduce battery life to 3-4 hours....

Which one of these is more reliable in the long run? :huh:

Samsung N100-MA05IN:
Atom 1.33Ghz/512kb cache, 1GD DDR3, 320GB, 6cell battery (upto 14 hrs), 1 yr warranty(pickup-drop)

ASUS 1015PX:
Atom 1.66Ghz/1mb cache, 1GD DDR3, 320GB, 6cell battery (upto 11 hrs), 1 yr warranty

MSI U135:
Atom 1.66Ghz/512kb cache, 1GD DDR2, 320GB, 3cell battery (upto 4 hrs), 2 yr warranty(Carry In Parts & Labour Limited)

Asus X Series X101H:
Atom 1.66Ghz/512kb cache, 1GD DDR3, 250GB, 3cell battery (upto 3 hrs), 1 yr warranty(on-site limited)
 
Hi,

Hows the performance of this ? I am also thinking of buying the same model. Is it good ?

Thanks.

I am using Win XP on it and it is running fine....

The battery lasts for 8.5 to 9 hours....(with Wi-Fi ON and using MS Outlook 2007).... this is my personal observation!!!

I think it's AWESOME!!!
