RE: [nukkad] Laptop

Nitin,
That reminds me of last year in Cincinnati, when both of us were looking out
shops after shops for your laptop. That was fun and finally you got Toshiba
piece.

I think he meant, using the laptop for "not-so-techie/high-end
programming" type of operations. If I were using the computer only for
Net surfing, MS office, emailing and chat, I wouldn't pay more for the
processor or RAM. Hard Drive: 40 GB or above should suffice.

I've been using Toshiba for more than an year now and it has been a
thoroughly enjoyable experience as regards quality and customer
service. It even came with a free 1 year warranty. I mention warranty
because, some of the best sellers in USA, for instance: Dell, offer
only 90 days of warranty support and need you to pay if you want more.
So I would consider this aspect while shopping for a laptop.

I bought a Compaq Presario (HP/Compaq in India) for my brother and it
has been a good experience so far, too. The only thing was, they
didn't have any laptops to shop for, right off the shelf and that
surprised me, especially because there is a growing market for laptops
in India, more than ever.
