Outstanding features: Based on the Intel M Processor 1.86 GHz, the DV1376TU comes with a 512Mb RAM and 80Gb Hard disk. The laptop features a LightScribe Dual Layer DVD burner; this means you can personalise the media label on a special LightScribe media.

The onboard video solution, the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 900, will suffice for the office user but not a hardcore gamer.

On the connectivity front, the DV1376TU offers an integrated 10/ 100 LAN Ethernet, Intel Pro/ Wireless 2200BG 802.11 b/g integrated WLAN and integrated Bluetooth.

The laptop comes with Windows XP Home Edition as the OS and Norton Internet Security and Norton Antivirus as protection software.

Drawbacks: This also comes with just a 512Mb RAM. Also, the onboard graphics solution is not meant for gamers or for using heavy multimedia features.

The final word: A great laptop for desktop replacement as well as road warriors. The configuration is also ideal for office applications and comes with a good software bundle.

Price: Rs 66,000
