My MBA course was going to start and as a condition a laptop was, must. I and my father researched for a good laptop under Rs 35, 000. I was confused between Dell and Hp but finally took Dell Inspiron 1520. It was a good deal at Rs 34, 000 with all the latest specifications and features.
Although the look of the laptop was not so good but still, as Dell is known for rough and tough use and long lasting I bought it. It works good but then after a year of use I faced battery issues. The battery used to go down so fast that had to keep charger on for full day. In a year, I have also formatted my Laptop twice eventhough there was a MacAfee Virus security provided for 2 years.
I really do not know how virus can corrupt the files and damage it when antivirus was installed. It has been 4 years I am using the laptop and is durable enough but facing petty issues like battery and viruses.
