Thread: Is Vostro3400 @42k a good buy?

I am getting a Dell Vostro 3400 at 42k. Looks like a good price to me, a similar configuration on Dell's website (with Win7) costs Rs.52,821.59 (delivery charges & taxes extra).

The configuration is:
Processor : i5 240M
RAM : 4GB DDR3
Graphics Card : NVIDIA(R) Geforce(TM) 310M, 512MB Graphics
HDD : 320 GB 7200rpm
Display : 14" LED anti-glare screen
Warranty : 3 Yr Next Business Day Onsite Service
OS : None

wot say ppl?

thanks

what are your needs?

this one is being offerred by my workplace as part of a scheme for employees to buy laptops, they've got just this one model. as for my needs, i will be running quite a few VMs so all the cores & RAM & HDD will come in handy, i don't play too many PC games so the graphics cards won't be fully utilized...maybe i'll start playing some

iam not looking to zero in on a suitable model as that has already been decided, its the price iam trying to check up on.

DONT GO FOR THE 52k one

cause Win 7 is availiable for 6k extra
or cause Linux is awesome
and as always PIRACY rocks
