HP Pavilion DV6-3050TX Laptop
Source: Tech2.in.com Archive.org version
Usually there's one such factor in a laptop that compels you to choose it, be it performance, aesthetics, affordability, build quality or portability. However, the HP DV6 3050TX is an all rounder at a great price. In terms of features and value for money, the one laptop that comes closest to this one is the Lenovo Y560. However, the Y560 is a lot cheaper (Rs 10,000 lesser), and has a mainstream Corei 5 CPU. Then again, the 3050TX is even better in terms of performance and looks. The long and short of it is, that if you're looking for an excellent multimedia laptop in the 60K price bracket, get the 3050TX.

Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.  

720QM: The Core i7-720QM is the slowes Core i7 Quad Core in 2009 and clocks between 1.6 and 2.8 GHz (due to the Turbo Mode). Therefore, it combines the advantages of a slow quad core CPU with a fast single core one. Compared to the faster Core i7 mobile CPUs, the 720QM only features 6MB L3 Cache.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

15.60":

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
