accessapoorv 0 Report post Posted July 31, 2011 @RajanBhai Have finally zeroed in for Toshiba laptop for my parents to do skype and simple net stuffs.. Following are the two models from letsbuy http://www.letsbuy.com/toshiba-satellite-c-series-c660p5012-genchaku-black-with-tops-pattern-p-17973 and http://www.letsbuy.com/toshiba-satellite-c-series-c660i5010-genchaku-black-with-tops-pattern-p-17979 Please suggest pros and cons of both considering the usability and longer life Also since the laptops come with DOS so age old work of installing the OS remains..Please suggest how the laptops are user friendly in installing the pirated OS..

tanveer 59 Report post Posted July 31, 2011 1 GB RAM. Do these laptops work on such low RAMs. What OS would work well on 1 GB? Or do they expect you to upgrade the RAM anyways. And as far as I know dual core was an underperforming processor. I have a 3 year old laptop Core2duo, 3 GB RAM and they are still making dual cores and i3s with 1 GB? Am I missing something here?

rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted July 31, 2011 @accessapoorv C660-I5010 is core i3-380M 2.53 Ghz with 1GB RAM, 250 GB HDD at Rs 20,888 and C660-P5012 is Pentium Dual Core P6200 2.13 Ghz with 2 GB RAM, 320GB HDD at Rs 19,250. Both has the same Intel HM55 Arrandale family chipset, fabricated with 32nm technology, same 3MB of L3 cache, same graphic controller. The only major difference is P6200 does not have Hyper Threading but i3-380M has, so it has better multitasking ability. If you will run some heavy duty apps like professional video editing, core i3-380M will perform faster than P6200. However for the usage patterns you mentioned P6200 is perfectly fine & you can go for C660-P5012, save around Rs 1,500 and get 2GB RAM & higher HDD capacity. Installing OS on both should be easy, however you may have to download drivers if they are missing driver DVD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
loypalm 9 Report post Posted July 31, 2011 ^^^^ I am running Win7 and Ubuntu (dual boot) on my Dell Inspiron 600m with Pentium mobile processor 1.6 Ghz 1.5 Gb RAM and am facing no problem whatsoever. Initially it had only 512 MB RAM (which was fine too) but I added another 1GB RAM as i got a good deal for it. Please note it is DDR1 RAM !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanveer 59 Report post Posted July 31, 2011 Win7 was good on a 512mb ram? That is news. Sent from my MB525 using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
loypalm 9 Report post Posted July 31, 2011 ^^^ MS says minimum 1 GB required but it runs on 512 MB smoothly a long as the AERO graphics features are disabled. Not as good looking but the functionality is complete Anyway, rather than installing pirated OS, go for Ubuntu. Its easy to use once configured and you wont be bothered with messages from MS saying you have Pirated OS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smnrock 16 Report post Posted August 1, 2011 If some one planning to use shopandship.com service, then you will get 10% discount on your shipping charges if you use mastercard... Here is the details Though india is not mentioned over there, but its been confirmed with them,that this offer is available in india too Also its possible(?) one can open shopandship.com a/c for 2.5$ if you use mastercard...since it has 50% off in membership fees. But i've not tried this one, may be some one can register new a/c using master card and the discount coupon earlier posted here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are 3 different prices.. 1st is Rajanbhais calculation 12655/- 2nd is direct ebay.com 303$ (13938/-) & 3rd is ebay global @ 14803/- less 700/- discount coupon.
