Each and every laptop mfr. seems to be interested in niche products like 80k notebooks- god U guys, you do not do any market research , emply professionals to do this & read the market i think we indians need centrino M notebooks in to retail at 35k- or celeron M for 25k- produce & sell by hundreds of thousands why bother with expensive laptops at 80k & sell only a few ??

I agree with his comments. What Indians need has been spelt out by him. Will the manufacturers heed to this and bring a revolution in the spread of notebooks? Let us wait andsee.
