Hi,
My dad wants to buy a notebook for his business work. He works as a consultant and has to travel to different cities for field work.
He'll be using the notebook for writing up reports, articles etc. Ofcourse, good video & audio playback capability would be a definite plus.
What's your Budget?
upto to 50K
What will be your primary usage for the notebook be?
Windows Office: Word, PowerPoint
SPSS, Tally
Internet
Additionally, watching Videos, Music, the regular stuff.
What size and weight considerations do you have?
The lighter the better since he'll be travelling to different cities for field work.
So should definitely be light and compact and easy to carry around.
Any brand that you prefer, or any brand that you detest?
Prefer any brand that has gauranteed good after-service with a wide network of service centers in different cities. This is a definite must.
Any other considerations?
# Prefer Windows 7 (if a Windows 7 notebook is significantly expensive than a xp, linux or other non-windows versions, then would prefer the latter since I can just install Windows 7 for him instead)
# Prefer Intel® Core™ i series processors Core i5 & ofcourse Core i7 if within budget (even Core i3 if no significant drop in performance)
# Good battery life is a definite must, since he'll have to work from the road on trains or planes etc.
# Durability is important too. He's the type of person who won't take real good care of the product and is messy. Have been using an HP for around an year and the paint and the keyboard keys are already wearing off. So the notebook should be sturdy and durable.
# Speed (Quick bootup & processing speed etc) is definitely important.
# Good visibility in sunlight.
# HD (Videos etc) playing capability would be a plus if within the budget.So would be a good graphic card.
