Ok, my friend who is in US right now has ordered Dell Inspiron 1520. He would have gone for Vostro 1500 as he wanted WinXP instead of Vista but Vostro series wasn’t released at the time when he ordered his lappy.
Me from mysore, actually i lucked out on the price here
If i had been a day late, i would not have been buying this beast. As they say, luck really counts.
well, i never had to pay the 4% VAT , since the dell agent told me they absorb the taxes if you called them over the phone to configure your machine. And , as i have said before, i was lucky to get the system at that price but you may definitely be able to get it at about 66k .
