i was thinking of getting the hp mini 311-1002TU but not sure if it's sufficient. I only need it to go on the web, microsoft office, some photo editing, music and movie. I'm not too much of a gamer. What do you think about the specs? Check theu url http://www.techhypermart.com/notebooks/net...d-bootje-1.html

QUOTE(lee_what2004 @ Jan 21 2010, 09:46 PM) should be sufficient, just need patient on the photo editing... thought with that price point, can consider acer 1810T as well, it got faster cpu though less powerful gpu, which in your case not much different. would you suggest that i upgrade the ram to 3 or 4gb to help with the speed? Or is it gonna make a lot of difference? What is the usual price range for ram upgrade?

QUOTE(lee_what2004 @ Jan 21 2010, 09:54 PM) ram nowadays is still expensive, around rm 150 for 2gb a piece... eithe ddr2 or ddr3 2gb is sufficient usually oh right.. i heard about the asus 1201n which offers better performance overall, but not sure if it's out in malaysia. Any idea when will that be out? I'm still contemplating whether i should just get the mini 311 or wait till asus 1201n is out in the market first.. i hate dilemma!

that's true. i just wonder why is malaysia always that slow when it comes to new gadgets. Plus, the american websites don't ship internationally. There's an advantage for us to buy laptops overseas as we won't be taxed!

i'm just checking on the acer 1810t. The specs are pretty impressive. I think cpu speed is more important that gpu to me since i'm not really into games. But frankly speaking, i'm skeptical towards acer as they dont seem to have a good reputation when it comes to durability (correct me if i'm wrong). What is the price for the 1810t considering mini 311 is selling at rm1799?
