    If you can afford Sony VAIO. I would recommend it 100%

    Otherwise go for HP.

    It really depends on how you will use the laptop.

    But for me I'll go for Sony as well

    I think HP's laptops are great.


    @ Hyderabadi

    You can check sites like ebay or bestbuy to have some idea about prices.

    If you want the look, go for Sony. If you want price value, I must say Dell offering that.

    i say go vaio for sony. it best in laptops. others are not as good. buy well know brand for better computer.

    ---

    You're basing your purchase on a brand name? I don't suppose you're actually looking at the specs of individual models in your price range?
