nah, still assembled in China...

but N81Vp is not avaliable in Southeast Asia (N81Vg with GT 120M is though), so need to import...

besides, even if i import this higher spec variant, it's still 10% cheaper than if i buy N81Vg in Singapore...

and i still get to own the powerful 14" laptop...

can those hd4500 graphic and su4100 cpu run maple story corretly?

y not? my p4 + radeon 9600 run perfectly ^^

so is my Pentium M with GMA900...

Haha..nice to know that..thanks!

Haha..Astria's being sarcastic?

Be very careful. International warranties cover business travel, but do not cover damage if your COUNTRY OF RESIDENCE is different from that of purchase.

There is a difference between the plain jane "international warranty" offered and the more expensive ones that are offered by major companies (Hp, IBM) business oriented products. Check the intl warranty statement carefully.

I know the T-series Lenovos and HP Probooks come with true international warranties...but are also relatively expensive.
...and are so reliable you dont really need to worry about warranty anyway.



...Unless you are me, who's T60 HDD died pretty quickly after being lugged around (while turned on) all day. ... Still, getting it fixed takes time. So perhaps a cheaper computer, and fix-it-yourself is a better idea.

Will definitely have a feel of the UL30A.... If it's rugged enough, I may end up fitting it with a SSD for work related walk-around-all-day use.

Still, from what I am seeing, it's going to cost about RM4000 to get it up to my requirements.

A NB205 or Mini 5101 + SSD + Office will still be cheaper by about $1500. And lighter and suits my purposes better. But the lack of a full size keyboard (cramped r shift on the 205) and smaller screen are making me lean towards the UL30A. And Xmind will lag like crazy on the netbook as it is quite processor dependant.


Any users of the UL30 wanna comment on it's build quality?

I guess you are talking about acer's international traveller warranty?

this is for asus global warranty, so no problem if the country of residence is different from purchase, unless I'm interpreting it wrongly.

source

there used to have acer aspire 3810T with 80GB intel ssd x-25m 1st gen for $800 on newegg.

I have no idea. Each manufacturer has different policies. Check for each individual notebook prior to purchase.

Asus IS international warranty... doesn't matter where u bought the notebook, provided u registered the warranty...

hello guys...hope i wont break any rules here...

so far never heard of UL81VT, and about the US is talking about UL80VT
malaysia do offer UL80VT, its just that at amazon can get $100 gift card if buying UL80VT.

as for some gaming benchmark, can refer here~
