All Gadget Gurus...!!

I'm looking to pick up a laptop soon. I really dont need the high end stuff but some of the things
I'm looking for are

Good performance
CD writer(DVD writer if possible)
bluetooth if possible(not necessary)
Most importantly looks
Good battery back up
Not too heavy

My main use would be for writing my articles transferring pictures I'm not looking for any high end multimedia stuff since I have my desktop for the same..

Budget for me is 55K max.....

I did some research n manage to shortlist a few...
