i am not saying that u lie...i am just saying to be careful with the seller if cannot COD...pls read carefully!!..and interpret it as a whole and not the first 3 words of the whole sentence... smile.gif

No hard feeling, but I am actually pointing at the first 3 words laugh.gif

As mentioned earlier, I said I have doubt on it. I do ask people to becareful as well. I am just providing the info that that particular seller said he have stock.

So, I guess you read my previous post 1st? wink.gif

still dun understand why they kill k50ab but remain the intel series of k50...  hmm.gif  vmad.gif

Nope smile.gif
My best bet is they can't earn a lot(cost of production expensive) to produce a bigger lcd screen and provide the numbering pad laugh.gif

true also... but some users will prefer smaller size while some wan bigger screen..both got their own market.. with num pad is really an attraction.. now left only intel series of k50 in the market.. really sad  cry.gif
hopefully they will continue to come out upgraded spec for K50  tongue.gif

Funny thing is k40ab and k50ab is at the same price. Of course cost of production for k50ab is higher. wink.gif

maybe is the strategy of asus to make ppl notice abt K series..so k50ab is so  limited after ppl get to know it then they stop it..

I would say that is a bad reputation.... Showing Asus is naughty laugh.gif
Come to the point, it show that Asus is not sincere in getting more new customer to buy Asus brand. smile.gif

That thing uses Athlon Neo, for extended battery life but of course lower performance, k40AB is way better. Weird, if they wanted to use low voltage CPU for more battery life why use HD4570 GPU? What is this laptop for when k40AB is here? sweat.gif

Am total noob on processor. Haha

I choose that name because its lighter physically too wink.gif

My aim is to get the most out of the battery while on move, when you just browsing the net and do nothing else. So I want to disable/remove some stuff to maximise battery life. But I use dGPU now, I want that 256MB out of my RAM
I don't know, I dont use XP on this laptop. In fact I dont use XP in any of my PC

Meaning, before Windows 7, you have been using Vista?
