hehe..but i prefer seagate ...i got tried seagate, WD and Maxtor.. the seagate very very old one still use until now..Maxtor mostly cannot last more than 3 yrs will kon...WD recently break down after used for abt 3 yr+ .. but i found that if compare the temperature, seagate is a bit warmer than WD... maybe the new model oledi improved...

basically all high end models have 5 year warranty

true also!

btw speaking on battery standby time, i could only do 1.5hours, normal usage surfing, music. (with battery profile+k10 stats)

mm i wonder how hanz08 got his to 2.5hours.

Can la bro, just play with the power4gear min/max state or the up/down values at k10stats. I can force run it at 50% cpu power but this mode only suitable for less demanding apps.

fuhhh,i just finish install window,drivers and installers

i am satisfied with this laptop coz i pwned all my dorm mates laptop,majority of them using Cq40...lulz.

Yeah talking about uniqueness, lucky me didn't bought the Acer 4736g nvidia 105g. Ran out of stocks.

I would have feel inadequate, hopelessness & sore loser badge stamped on my forehead if i did.

this laptop wont be unique, if you want unique, go and get something with a bigger pricetag or go get a brand less people buy.

In my personal experience using a laptop, if the laptop have a really sweet price/performance ratio like this K40/K50, you'll end up not unique anymore. people really sucks for a laptop like this. and surely, after a year, there will be new laptop like this, and they will also 'brand' us suckers like we did now to cq-40 users. so lets hope we have around a year minimum to enjoy our laptop....
