@ Clevermax - May be you need to check your BIOS. It may have some settings to disable auto adjustments. Last edited by funda2max : 3rd July 2010 at 10:13. | |

But, i would suggest you look at Inspiron, it is cheaper than Studio but has all capabilities. More over, you save ~15K for the same configuration. | |

| Need to decide on a laptop... Very urgent Hi My GF got through B-School and needs to buy a laptop urgently (within the next 2 days max). So that kind of reduced the choices I could make. Also, other requirements were: Budget: Below 35k... All inclusive (tax, etc. etc.) Use: Mostly Internet, Office Productivity, Music, a few movies etc. Brands: She did not want an Acer or HP, or a lesser known one like MSI, ASUS etc... Hence I am stuck with Lenovo and Dell. I need to get here something sturdy, with a reasonable battery life (3hrs+), perhaps a 14-15" screen, a decent keyboard, preloaded Windows 7... ... and most importantly, it should be reliable. Based on those requirements, I finalized these two models: LENOVO G450, 59-025687, for Rs. 32,500 Intel Core 2 Duo T6600 (2.2Ghz) Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit 3GB RAM 320GB HDD Intel GMA4500 6 Cell Battery 14" Screen (Glossy) 1 Year Warranty DELL Vostro 1014, for Rs. 33,000 Intel Core 2 Duo T6750 Windows 7 Home Basic 2GB RAM 320GB HDD Intel GMA 4500 6 Cell Battery 14" Screen (Matte) 1 Year Warranty I have not included the Inspiron 14R or 15R as they have the Core i3 processors, and are hence, at least 37k (all inclusive)... Also, the laptop needs to be available quickly. I was going to get the Lenovo, but two things stopped me: 1. I have heard that this particular model has issues like excessive heat, crashes during running etc... it it true? 2. It has a glossy screen. I would have preferred a matte one (which is why I shortlisted the Dell), for long work on Word, Excel etc... will a Glossy screen result in a lot of fatigue? Can anyone pl. reply ASAP, as I need to make a correct decision, else I'm sunk  .Thanks. |

 TBHP to rescue.i can tell you about glossy. it will let her work even in strong ambient light (say outdoors). matte on the other hand, scatters the light and renders it useless. In low ambient light, matte will be perfect but glossy will show reflections from slightest source of light, like a white shirt. it's a matter of getting used to. small reflections don't bother me anymore. | |

BTW: I have a Toshiba Satellite, a Compaq and an IBM Thinkpad T60 too and though 15R costs less than half the price of the other ones it has really amazed me. I have been working on Basic photoshop, have 3 browsers open on the side with atleast 5 tabs on each plus 2-3 MS office files and it just doesnt blink. Go for it if you have the time, if you are in Bangalore you will get it in under a week. | |
