[QUOTE="Pernicious, post: 2065694, member: 38882"] Hi guys, want to buy a new laptop. Will be used mainly for browsing the net and other normal routine office use. Storage space 500 GB or above, this seems to be the norm these days. Ram I think 4 GB is less for these days. basically want to buy a laptop which will last good for next 4-5 years. Display should be good, not that must be full HD. This laptop will replace a 7-8 year old HP laptop which has 4 GB Ram and Intel processor. I don't know which brand is good these days, Dell HP Lenovo or Asus. Also, will buying online get warranty? Budget, not over 50K. Don't want to over spend also, as the use is pretty restricted. Would really love a laptop which is not very heavy. [LIST] [*]What's your Budget? : >30K, not more than 50K. [*]What will be your primary usage for the notebook be? web surfing + office apps [*]What size and weight considerations do you have? (e.g. Do you want a 17" desktop replacement or you want an ultraportable 12" or something in between): SOMETHING IN BETWEEN. Not heavy, no need for macbook air type portability. [*]Any brand that you prefer, or any brand that you detest? (e.g some would prefer to stay away from Acer or Dell) No Idea which brand is reliable these days. Used HP and Apple. HP has problems with battery/adapter everything else is fine. Not sure about others. Want a brand with good build quality, of course not like apples but something along the same lines. [*]Any other considerations? (e.g Battery life; Widescreen/non-widescreen; Glossy/Matte screen etc.) 4-5 hour battery life around, Should last for 4-5 years. Would prefer DOS OS as do not want Windows 8. Prefer 7. [/LIST] Thanks [/QUOTE]
