    I'm planning to buy a laptop. Searching for a good place & price*. Although, it will also be used for personal purposes, mainly will be used for office work. Will have to work with virtualization. So, need some good performance. The followings are the important requirements which I'm looking for. & I prefer if I can go for these specs around 75 - 90. & like to know whether I can go for a better one within that budget.

    Intel i3 (2nd/3rd generation)
    8GB DDR3
    15.6" Screen
    Hard Drive 500GB or more (7200 RPM)

    Thank You :yes:


    *Recently called Trident for an i3 with 8GB ram. The price was about 121000. I felt like it was a bit high. Of course that might be due their 3yrs warranty & things. But, I'm a bit confused. I read a lot of good comments about Metropolitan. But as I can see they mainly do Acer. I want to know whether they do Lenovo too. Anyone know anything about this place?. Someone had posted a link to their web site here. Are they good?. http://www.sit.lk/solutions/personal_computers.php
    What about Singer?. I saw some Lenovo laptops in their site.

    මම දන්න විදියට Lenovo හොඳයි සහෝ. කල්පැවැත්ම අතින් ThinkPad ඉස්තරම් කියල තමයි පාවිච්චි කරන යාලුවොත් කිව්වෙ. අන්තර්ජාතික අහ්‍යවකාශ මධ්‍යස්ථානය ගැන දන්නව ඇතිනේ. ඒකෙ පාවිච්චි කරන්න සහතික කරපු එකම ලැප්ටොප් එක ThinkPad. :yes:

    බොහොම ස්තූතියි :)

    I asked from Trident. That price for i3 is not affordable for me. Specially, I'm looking to buy one for installments.

    Thanks :)

    Dude, my company buys only high-end laptops (latest batch is T430), so our picks are always Lenovo i7 with above 12 GB RAM. Since we get with the full warrantee and highest specs, the price per piece is usually about 200,000.00. Lenovo is usually regarded as one of the best business machines with good durability and performance. You won't be able to get them cheap. So if your budget is very tight, think of other brands and models.
