Conclusion:

HP EliteBook 6930p offers you a complete package of all the latest features with Intel Core2 Duo Processor, bright matte AUO WXGA+ display and solid built for durability but HP should work on to reduce the weight and increase the battery life. The laptop design gives a complete professional look and if you don’t have any budget issues and less mobility then it’s perfect for Indian Business personnel. Otherwise I would suggest you to look for other laptops with less weight and more battery power.
