HCL AX008002 (Rs. 39,490)
The AX8002 has the same processor as the Acer— Intel’s 1.6 GHz T2050 Core Duo processor. RAM is 512MB DDR2 running at 533 MHz. Hard drive size is cut to half in the HCL laptop with a capacity of 60GB. It also uses the SATA interface. This one features a 14.0 inch gloss wide-screen with a native resolution of 1280x768.
The high points here are the placement of ports and the availability of a firewire port. The AX008002 also comes with the latest Express Card Slot and features Gigabit LAN.
Other standard features include, 8x dual layer DVD writer, Linux OS, card reader and a six cell battery that lasts around 2 hours and a carry case similar to that of the Acer 5572ZNWXMi. Please make sure you take the Windows driver for the laptop from the vendor at the time of purchase. Trust me! locating drivers online can be very painful. Again, warranty is similar to that of Acer’s i.e. Carry-in and the service center in Mumbai is located at Saki Naka.
The laptop weighs 2.5 Kg.
Hi! this is Ankit. I am planning to buy a laptop of around 40,000.
