QUOTE(NaGeNaZ @ Oct 8 2009, 02:36 AM) The application means nothing much and essentially the same for both models. Both systems use the same hardware so same utilities can used most of the time. All apps for K40AB that listed came in my K50AB utilities disc. THX for that info, still considering K40AB n K50AB, i really prefer lighter weight. Why Asus dont put different price tag on it ? smaller screen n without numpad cost RM50 lesser mah.

Well, that's Asus marketing strategy  ....with the same price you can get 14" or 15" laptop  ..just the point whether you want portability or bigger screen...

yeah. for ppl like me i will never buy notebook that are bigger than 14". so its depend on ppl actually. if u like smaller one then buy k40ab. if u like bigger go for k50ab.

i dont feel the weigh is a problem.. like u said.. 250g.. its not really noticeable when u carry a laptop..
it just depend on urself.. if ur a mobile person.. definitely go for k40.. easier carry around..
k50 is more of entertainment.. where i.. always put on the table only.. hahaa..

Added on October 8, 2009, 12:54 pmJust to double confirm. By default the 2GB ram will come in 2x1GB or 1x2GB ram? This post has been edited by Joshua_0718: Oct 8 2009, 12:54 PM

yes got, and if we use the webcam, there will be a LED beside the webcam to indicate that the webcam is in use. so you can know if an application is using the webcam.
