Yes. I checked that place yesterday.
They have a 14" one from Ezee Bee HCL - celeron M for
28K and VIA for 27K.
I am thinking of VIA since they have lower heat
decipition. So not only will the life of the chip be
OK, but the heat wont damage ram, hdd etc.
Above models will have red hat 9.0 with it - which I
might try for a fortnight or so.
The site is non-functional. Hardly 2 or 3 models are
shown in search. And the search itself is broken. When
I search in price range of 20 to 30 K, it returns 4
models of 40, 60 K etc.
The data care (near deccan) is said to be authorised
dealer for acer as per acer's site. But that fella
showed only a model of 36K.
I will not recommend him to anyone.
