Laptops found with best value for money:

Option 1:

Option 2:

http://www.flipkart.com/hp-compaq-15-s008tu-notebook-4th-gen-ci3-4gb-500gb-f...

Both are with 4GB RAM & 500GB HDD &same display size

2nd has slightly better processor, so is more expensive,

Both will need OS to be installed by user.

But 1st has best value.

Hi,

I've been mostly with laptops and AiOs till date, all failed prematurely (actually, soon after the warranty period). Environmental conditions in my area (highly corrosive air; as I live right next to a creek) lead to internals being damaged faster than expected.

Have decided to not waste a lot of money any more, would prefer to go for lower costing assembled desktops in the range of INR. 20 ~ 25 thousand.

I solicit suggestions and recommendations for a good hardware configuration.

Line of work is mostly Web software (primarily JavaScript), using multiple browsers (Firefox, Chrome) and SublimeText.

Prefer to use Ubuntu (latest available).

Thanks,

~Mayuresh
