Hi friends this is deepak here I have the dell laptop.
As per my knowledge and the experience I have .ibm laptop is not so good in term of the speed or the performance. I also have the R51 model in which the speed is too slow and due to this I feel frustrated.
I had find out the reason for that and it is .there are many utilities run on the IBM system by default by which more memory occupied and laptop become slow so it is not worth while to buy the ibam laptop approx 50000rs and if u remove the programs then they will not give u the warranty.
I will prefer go for the DELL or the HP laptop they are damm good according to me.
MY laptop configuration was for IBM.
1.86ghz 533mhz
40gb hard disk
256 mb ram
wi-fi, bluetooth
cd dvd combo pack.
I tell u that if u pay the 50000rs go for the compaq 2200 model it is 43000rs approx and it is far better than the IBM and if u can afford go for DELL it is Market leader in this segment.
My request to u is dont look on the looks only get the information for the battery backup, technology and other pheripherals configuration and make best deal.
DEll will take the 15 to 20 dyas for the delivery and thye will deliver to ur door.
I feel that by writting this review I can help u liitle bit.
