Hey Mehul, I'm considering getting a new laptop- small and light with a 2 to 2.5GHz processor, 3GB RAM and 250GB HDD. I might be doing some intense numerical work on it- MATLAB/SCILAB and such. I went over to a Croma outlet today to have a look at a few laptops, but every single one had Vista preinstalled. No option to get one with Linux or without an OS. Even Acer, which I had bought earlier with Linux preinstalled, doesn't allow you to buy one without Vista any more. At Croma at the very least. Is there any place that you, or your friends know of where I can look into for options on buying something along the lines of the config I've mentioned? Any store-names (in Mumbai)/websites would be helpful. I've Googled around a bit but I'm mostly just getting US specific results for Dell. Thanks Aditya
