@mk..,
my family has a vaio..bought 1 yr back at 59K now must be 52-54K..its Ok..but then vaio after sales in a b-school can be a prob..

its one's personal choice & also some kind of brand loyalty is involved..

Hey all !!!
it indeed is dell,as i had told, inspiron1525, .. and the deal, sure is worth more than even 60K since i also have taken vista home premium, bluetooth headdset adn bag and all that jazz.. now y did i do that ? , i sure m not nuts to waste money on OS .. but check check check .. dell has some offer that if the price crosses 60k, they give some more discount than even5%.. also, i booked the leptop on the name of a frnd in infy . so 3% more discount !! .. PM me if u want no. of the sales guy who did my deal .. same deal can be replicated i guess..

Have you noticed something unusual? The huge excise duty amount is not there for the Dell Vostro Models.. infact you can evade all taxes if you can wait for 5 extra days for delivery but u can't do that for an Inspiron/XPS... configure a vostro on dell.co.in and see it for yourself... I don't understand such differential policies for the two models... Can someone investigate?

yeah I noticed that too. Infact, in addition to the Vostro line, there is no excise duty on the Inspiron 1520 and 1720 models either. Don't know why.

What am i missing here ?? !! i configured multiple vostros and in no case did the excise duty was 0 ! specifically checked 1510 and 1310 models..
now shall also chk 1520 and 1720...
.
.
.
Checked.. nop .. here too no rebate of any sort..
puys make sure you select these options :

Tax Calculation : Please select shipping State and City for tax calculation.

If you are not checking these and selecting a state and city, you're not calculating any tax that needs to be paid and ultimately, this whole discussion, last 3-4 posts are leading nowhere in that case..
pls correct me if i am wrong . . .
