im writing it after a week use i have checked with the stores nearby and online sellers .flipkart price 21,945 is the cheapest....but the only cons are the non availability of bluetooth and HDMI port....which you can buy externally for less than 500 k..if u want it to be inbuilt go for this one.( http://www.flipkart.com/m/lenovo-essential-g580-59-351470-laptop-2nd-gen-pdc-2gb-500gb-dos/p/itmdjyghr3pwhzqa?pid=COMDJYGJZB3QYWQ5&otracker=browse ) which will be costing you 1500rs extra pros: # using the lenvo energy management software it gives 5.30 hours of battery backup(i checkd by continuous browsing and videos) with no compensation in graphic appearance # high gloss black finish is awesome..great looks (but may attract finger prints) #speaker sound is really superb..no need of external speakers for watching movies(comes with dolby advanced audio) # pdc processor supports overclocking and no lag in playing hd videos( can optimise performance using tuneup softwares) # cheapest 500gb model in the price range with 2gb ram and 2.2ghz processor cons # slightly on heavier side( but feels robust not like some fragile laptops that needed to be carefully handled) # lan drivers from cd might not work ... but can download drivers from lenovo forum # ( no essential side keys) but the function keys serves the purpose for sleep mode, lcd backlight , touch pad lockoff... etc # have to install drivers from cd..only then hd videos will play without lag perfectly # touch pad is really jumpy (can get drivers from lenovo forum) but i use only external mouse # battery feels slighly shaky while keeping on lap..wont be a issue overall very good laptop recommended for this price range will surely surpass your expectations if u can spend some more can go for i3 processors which comes around 27 to 28 k and i forgot the back pack i received as gift with it...nice one with full black matching the lap except the fluorescent orange thing ....the bag is http://www.flipkart.com/m/lenovo-eternity-15-6-inch-backpack/p/itmd6da5bbfxrzy8?pid=ACCD6DA44JTMRBR9&otracker=browse costin around 800 in flipkart itself...
Best laptop at 20k. As described by the title , it has all the essential features for daily usage.nAt this range u can get only 11" or 15" screen laptops with low processor power.nnBut lenovo offers Pentium Dual Core processor, better than the oler core2Duo.n@2.2Ghz,n 2GB RAMn 500 GB HDDn 15.6" hd led display, LENOVO IS THE BEST.nnonly disadv is that It doesn't hav a bluetooth.
Flipkart's service(condition of the product) is Excellent,Though the customer service was misbehaving with me.nWhen i asked the customer service about Freedos , they told me that it only *spins* the hard-disk,later i saw about *freedos* online. freedos official website can searched via Google has more info about freedos than flipkart customer service could say.nnWhen it comes to softwares i am a total newbie , But i assure you the suggestions provided below will very surely benefit the product.There are other laptops which comes with pre-installed Ubuntu/Linux , but not with other softwares.nnFlipkart could better the product by installing an OS like open source based Ubuntu/debian-based OS.Along with basic free anti-virus,fully configured firewall,open-source network monitor application like etherape,Multimedia player open-source apps like VLC,Rhythmbox(currently plugin for mp3 player is not built-in needs to installed separately).2 or more open-source compilers like eclipse,Code::Blocks with interpreter must also be included.nnnC/C++ CompilersnGCC ....

A perfect choice for anyone wanting to buy a budget laptop. Performance is excellent with Windows 7. Only con is the top is very glossy and attracts a lot of fingerprints.
I am unable to install Windows OS on this laptop. It is throwing error with CHKDSK command, while installing Windows XP operating system
research. compare. buy.
