Looking for a laptop for 40k guys.

Its going to be used for general computing, lots of cad work and a little bit of 3d rendering.

So a bigger screen is preferred...

15" should be good... anything smaller is a big no.

As much ram as possible,

If possible a basic graphic chip.

I can stretch the budget to 45k but don't wat to put more than that guys,

Looked at configs from HP, Compaq and Dell.

Dell inspiron 1525 with 3gb ram seems to fit the bill.

What do you guys suggest??

Thanks guys...

One last doubt i have...

Can i use a bluetooth handsfree of my phone with the comp for gtalk or should i buy something seperate??

Found out that it can be used...

But bluetooth cuts of with obstructions like walls right? Can i use someother headphone mike combo. That has good range and is not hassled by walls and other obstructions?

Im looking at slightly lower range..
And let m tell you something interesting

I was trying out different configs of vostro 1510..

I configured same conf from 2different links..

And i got the same config at 2different prices..and a price difference of 2.1k!!!

The lower one was 31k..
just imagine..

So you can get good deals form dell, but you need to put in some time and effort..
