I need some help in choosing a good laptop.. I'm not completely incompetent with computers but i can't seem to make up my mind....
Well here's the story: My father's a doctor and recently he had a patient management software designed for use in his private practice. There really isn't much space there to set up and use a desktop so now we have to buy a laptop.
Our budget is around Rs. 80,000. I realize that a laptop capable of running that software wont cost that much but I figured in the long run we'll end up using it for a lot of other things as well so a newer laptop is the way to go...
Right now I'm stuck between 2 laptops..
Here are their specs:
