certainly the k50ij is faster, since both of them is different purposes notebook.
asus 1005 is more into word processing and light browsing with long battery life...

if you really need the long battery life, consider acer 1410T, at rm 1499, 6++ hours battery life, while still better performance than asus 1005, and the difference with the k50ij would be only slower processor, while still having the netbook size/weight.

but for main notebook, I would really suggest taking bigger notebook, k50ij, it will be easier on the eye in long term~

yaya another user for this laptop is my aunt, 50 yrs old++...i thk she need a big screen...
i try to avoid acer because my friend last time worked at PC shop during his sem break and he told me he rcvd a lot of complaint abt acer...

anyway i still prefer k50ij bcoz of 2 yrs warranty and the price is not much different compare with 1005....hehe

once again tq bro...

Hi Lee, today i went to Lowyat Plaza and tried out the K50IJ. I'm satisfied with it and I think i'll buy at this Sunday. Before this anything i should be aware of it?

Btw i have a desktop and i'm using streamyx modem. After i buy a laptop, do i need to buy a new modem + router or a router will do??

just make sure the seal on the box is still sealed when you buy it,  then make sure the accessories is there like the cd, battery, adaptor, mouse (iinm).
and also make sure the spec is the same with the one you are going to buy.
then don't forget to register the warranty online.

router would do.

i can i check the spec? Can i open the laptop and check in the window?
sorry if i'm asking stupid question sweat.gif
