  1. Where is the Acer Aspire S 13. And seriously the Macbook offers no value for a lakh rupees. Honestly, given those credits, I’d go for a Dell XPS 13(yeah that’s better than the Dell Inspiron 15 given at the top) or atleast a MacBook Pro 13. And the pavilion range of HP is for the lower segment, the Spectre is meant for anyone with no bargain for cash. Moreover, the Asus ROG is a better gaming PC that the Predator
