So I am in the market for a new computer and it being the festive season in India, I was checking up deals online on the few online stores that I visit. After consulting with a techie cousin of mine, based on my needs and usage, and seeing what was out there on offer, he suggested this particular laptop : it’s the Del Vostro 3558 Core i3.

Here are the specifications :

INTEL CORE I3 / 1.7GHz – 4005U / 15.6 inch LED Backlit Display with Truelife and HD

4GB DDR3L 1600Mhz / 1TB HDD SATA Hard Drive (5400RPM) / dvdrw

HD (720p) capable webcam, microphone / Stereo speakers with Waves MaxxAudio® 4

Dell Wireless-N 1705 @ 2.4GHz + Bluetooth 4.0 / USB 3.0 (1), USB 2.0 (2), Security slot, Media Card (SD, SDHC, SDXC)

Intel® HD Graphics 4400

It comes with just DOS but I can easily find someone to install Win 7 for me (no I do not want an upgrade to Win 8 or Win 10 or whatever). I will be making up my mind this week.
