hello guys biggrin.gif

i'm just getting myself a K50AB on last sunday
bought it for RM2000 (k50ab + 7 free gifts,can't remember exactly how much) at Evernew, Digital Mall, PJ
2Gb ram + hdd 250Gb,CD driver for winXP provided by them

come with 2-year warranty from ASUS. if want additional 1-year by Evernew, need to topup RM138

at the 1st time, try to install vista ultimate, but seems like the loading time was very very long and i'm not familiar wif vista GUI
+ i install/remove/changing vga/sound drivers until the k50ab got rclxub.gif (errors occured here n there) like hell shakehead.gif

at last,i gave up,format the k50ab and install winXP sp3
now i'm very happy wif it, loading time is much faster and easier to be used than vista ultimate brows.gif

but the pblm now are, my webcam record my image terbalik (myb i need to refer to previous pages for the solution but not a big deal at all)

previously, the sound seems randomly missing (esp when i try to play videos at youtube.com), but now is getting better n louder cool.gif need to get used with the keyboard since i always accidently press button backspace + num lock serentak sweat.gif

1 questions, izzit the temp is normal during idle? or abit higher? sweat.gif

the only diff is k40ab is 14" and k50ab is 15" with numpad-added keyboard. otherwise, same performance. perhaps k50ab runs at lower temp due to its spacious interior compared to k40ab. but if your friend is more on-the-go type, i would say that k40ab is more mobile.  brows.gif

agreed. bought my k50ab recently
the 15.6' is quite big and heavy to be carry over here n there sweat.gif
but since i'm not a frequent traveler n the free wifi spots are near to my house, it's not a pblm (at least for me) brows.gif

but again, depends to the owner itself. some people like 14.1', some are ok wif 15.6' smile.gif
