Hello there. I'm new to this world of laptop as well as... New to everything in computer. Well. I need a laptop here for my College. Will going Lowyat next week. So will get a laptop there. And hope that I could have some guidance here. Just placed an order on Dell's site recently, but due to some problems, the deal is cancelled. So, hope I could get fully prepared for my first laptop. Information, guidance, suggestions, opinions, comments etcs. needed.
Budget -> below RM3,500 Main purpose -> College needs Second purpose -> Moderate gaming (Games in demand:L4D, CoD4, RA3 and etcs.) Others ->Best come with backlit keyboard. -> Hope it has a trustable build
Addtional thoughts -> Hope it comes with the specs below. Core 2 Duo CPU more than 2GB rams Moderate GC (could play the games as listed) 14"- 15" screen will be the best Does HP has a model that suits the conditions above?
I can't deal with DELL online. Due to some payment method problem. Might going Low Yat.
What brand would you recommend? What type of CPU and GPU are suitable for my need?
Please leave a message if you need more infomation. Sorry for any stupid question or info. I'm a newbie to computers. =) Thanks.

Maybe MOD can pinned a thread 'Need Laptop Recommendations' so that we will not be flooded with this kind of thread again And TS, any brand that you prefer?? Care to tell us? There are a lot of laptop that within the range of your budget & also the range of your specs..if you can narrow it down to a brand or two..a lot more easier for you to choose & for us to suggest...

btw, the backlit keyboard requirement will kill a lot of potential models...
