too bad, nope!

i've been at mid valley for past 2 weeks, not a sign! darn....

how about the Celeron? faster than both AMD and atom? can the dualcore/celeron and dell 11z's VGA support HD movies and photoshop? whats so special about the ION chipset?
Dell 11z been released for quite some time right?

celeron is quite slow..u can read the review from website for this unit.. many ppl complain abt it. but of cos faster than atom ..i think should be abt same as amd neo.. i thought 11z only got hdmi? but got adapter to convert hdmi to vga.. got one forumer mentioned abt it above.. photoshop should not be problem.. but not sure if will lagging or not.. cos even atom also can open..but of cos lagging..

ohh ic...thx for the info. guess my choice is pretty obvious now went to dell's website and customised the dualcore 11z. ended up with RM2661 =.= 2yr extended warranty and draft-n only leh

want to ask 1 thing
chk in DELL website the c2d processor is SU4100

do some research, found out hat this piece cant support 64bit, from notebookreview chart

but in intel wbsite it support 64bit

so which is true?

I ordered but seems like DELL delivery is slow. They put a target of 5 Nov for delivery date
I am suppose to go travelling on 29 October and have informed them to meet my requirements. The 5th Nov is really overshoot their promise of less than 15 days.

this is a good buy i think.. looking at the feature set

hehe..tats why i am still waiting to see if any discount in future.... actually if u really compare dell 13, its just a bit longer and wider but thicker.. and with that price u can get c2duo .. too bad i no chance to look at the real unit and compare both of them only.. only can use the ruler to measuer according to the measurement given

lol...the main diff now is the processor. I reckon i might need the dual core coz i hope i can do everything with it ( other than gaming) It should last me for at least 2 yrs( college) since i'm getting a proper laptop during uni ( in any case, i may still use the mini for its portability)

wow...then why dun u find a proper notebook with 12 inch screen or 13 inch screen? like using p series or t series? this will be more practical for you to use for at least 2 yrs.. dell 13 is quite suitable to u.. not tat big also..

awwwww man....

actually i have a rig already, which will serve as my workstation for all tasks until i go abroad, that is. I simply needed something portable to get me through college life (presentation..starbuck-ing...toilet-surfing....etc)...something that i can chug right into my schoolbag. I'll defo get a multipurpose laptop in 2 yrs time. The Dell13 recommended by you would seem more of a laptop with its 13.3' screen. How long can its battery last bytheway?

tat one not too sure..someone said abt 3-4 hours?...but for me i think dell 13 is better if u need it as ur primary notebook..duno wat is ur opinion..

it comes with 6-cell battery, cannot be 3-4 hours.

nah it wont be my primary..i still have my rig. just need it for certain apps like photoshop and full HD movies. should be able to handle with celeron right? or should i go for the dualcore?
hehe it will feel great knowing that ur having the best netbook out there

I myself looking to buy a notebook.....and im planning to buy a DELL 13.....though i would use my current dektop too............

Total Sports madness

which one u refer? if 11z should be around 6 hours+ but dell 13 some users claim that last abt 3-4 hours.. because it is using p series..

Added on October 17, 2009, 8:05 amhaha.. for me, one primary dekstop and notebook, then i will only consider netbook ..because sometime u might need use ur notebook to play some heavy program or do some presentation..i dun wan use netbook or smaller notebook (slower processing speed) cos it will make everyone wait and make me even nervous while waiting..
anyway, dual core will be better compare to celeron.. but depend on ur budget too.. i really wan to compare 11z and 13 together using the real unit.. then only can decide.. if not much different, i will just consider dell 13 since price is abt the same (basic spec without customize) and if i have more budget, i will add in gpu..

just found the comparison of size in this web..u can also add in dell 13..not very big different in terms of size.. and 11z is same depth as hp dv2..

Well, for a college student I guess most of my presentations can be done with Powerpoint and Word..with a dualcore 11z I reckon it should have enough juice to deal with whatever tasks. The only reason I might need a laptop NOW(as I said, I'll be getting one during uni) is to bring it over to friend's house or Starbucks for LAN games which i dont think is very productive.....(hope my parents don't surf lyn and see this)

Dell13 is not exactly a laptop since it doesn't have a dvd drive. But its 13 inch screen simply doesn't put it in the portable netbook category either.

haha..dell 13 is not so portable but the size not much different and can get more powerful processor with almost same price..

atom also can open with powerpoint and work ..just u need to wait like a while then loading and open the program ..i believe you dun wan this happen when you are doing the presentation...it can make the speaker even nervous while waiting for loading ...

anyway..find the one which suit u is the most important thing.. i will wait till i see the real unit and compare the size.. sometime look at the measurement is not so accurate... better compare it side by side ...

i am drooling over this notebook. fantastic price for a 11" full fledge duo core cpu as my working laptop. Thinking of buying a 21" HDMI LCD for my work with this lappie. the portability is awesome and the ULV Core duo is awesome!
