Remember to try and see whether the free 2nd and 3rd year local warranty (worth RM499 for Qosmio units) works for your newly bought laptop or not.

If not but you still want to extend warranty, you need to purchase the warranty extension within 30 days after purchase ya.

Once you get the laptop, remember to create the 4 recovery discs, that should be all haha

Hmm. I ordered Qosmio F60 S531 yesterday. The ladyboss in the shop tell me the windows is preloaded, *supposed to be preloaded*. But everything have to wait till i get hold of my piece of F60 until i can confirm. And ya, it comes with 3 years warranty.
I heard in the box it comes with a plastic casing to protect the glossy finish ?

Yeah... it comes with a plastic sheet protecting the highly sensitive fusion finished lid. You also get a piece of cloth as well as the cover (cloth) for the whole screen. Its best not to remove the plastic sheet as the lid, even though very impressive looking, attracts dust/ scratches rather easily if not well taken care of....

Preloaded as in? They've already started up W7 32-bit/64-bit for you? O____O
If that is the case then its possible for them to sell you used units? Better be careful o...

Anyway, grats on your purchase o!
I'm sure it'll serve you well

Preloaded as in it either comes with 32bit or 64bit. I dont get to choose on the startup. But she isnt very sure though. That's what she told me lar...and i told her not to unbox my machine until i get there, just in case.
Currently they've got no stock for this machine, still waiting for it. If fast then tomorrow(saturday) can get it, if not then it'll be next Monday or Tuesday.
Is it a plastic sheet like a screen protector or it's a hard transparent case ?

Yup.... All Toshiba units comes preloaded with both 32-bit/64-bit (which is why so many problems haha). Anyway, you get to choose which (32-bit or 64-bit) during your 1st time installation. So if you don't get that option, it means that they have already open your laptop and installed it before selling to you. You can check whether you are running on 32-bit or 64-bit system via right clicking My Computer> Properties.
Hehe, hope you can get your laptop asap, do let us know what you think upon getting it o ^^ I'm sure the speakers will blast you away hehe
If you have any question on warranty registration/extension, do let us know

The plastic sheet is sticked on the laptop lid (not the screen, the screen don't have protector one).... As for the cloth, its used to sleeve and cover the whole screen when not using.

To PF T.J.,
Do you mean this one?
"TOSHIBA Value Added Package-1.2.33_64"

Yaya, that one, thanks for helping out

MSN messenger ar.... unless we both have access to very good lines only then that can be done... if not then halfway the transfer will be affected.

can use free hosting like mediafire....

Ya, i hope i can get my laptop faster also. Hope i wont be disappointed by Toshiba.

Thanks bro!
Will check it out

hi everyone,toshiba smart pad coming soon ?

You mean the Toshiba Folio 100? O____O
Not sure, no news on that yet.... even if its coming its going to take a few months...
The Libretto W100 is available though

hi everyone... i want to buy m900-d351... any comments on that laptop?

i5-520M+ G310M@~RM4k?
Personally I don't think its worth it
Have you seen the model yourself? The textured designs are unique, not everyone will like it
Its quite (very) heavy for a 13 incher, but it does have a optical drive...
Based on my experiences, its best to avoid Toshiba models using G310M since they have incompatibility issues which can give you a lot of headache
The Satellite M500 with the same GPU and weaker processor is already quite hot... I can't imagine how hot the M900 will be because its way smaller

I would recommend Asus U35Jc~ RM2.6k or the U33Jc (bamboo version)~ RM3.6k. They don't come with optical drives but you could always compromise with an external 1~ The specs are equivalent, if not better than the M900.

If you just want a light and durable laptop (not capable of gaming), then can take a look at the Portege R700.

I havent seen the model my self. I only saw the spec. Im not a gamer. . Probably will only use my laptop for downloading movies n surfing. A good speaker is one of the main thing im looking for. Im not sure if m900 use harman kardon or not. Can u suggest a laptop for me? I want toshiba tho. My current latop is toshiba sat m100. Its almost 5yrs old and it started to crash.... A fr

LOL, my previous laptop was a Satellite M100 too haha
Reliable lappy it is, now in the hands of my sis~ The harman/kardon on that model is quite soft though haha...

Well... you can always buy external speakers for your laptop
The M900 doesn't come with Harman/kardon. Only a handful of Toshiba units come with those... The newer batch of Harman/kardon speakers are spectacular that I can assure you haha
Recent Toshiba models that comes with Harman/Kardon: Satellite M500-S432, Qosmio F60-S531/BD533, Satellite M645, Satellite A665 and all the other models of the Qosmio family. I don't really recommend the M500-S432 (touchscreen) since its also using the G310M GPU which causes incompatibility issues that Toshiba hasn't really solved yet...
The Qosmio F60-S531 is priced at around RM 3.2k but its running on i3 only and its 15.6inch in size
The M645 (RM4k) is 14 inch in size and has a rather powerful processor as well as GPU... but since you don't play games you don't really need it at all...
The A665 and other Qosmios are too large and are out of your budget, unfortunately...
Review of Satellite M645 here: http://www.laptopmag.com/review/laptops/to...llite-m645.aspx

In the end it depends on what you want lo... I would say noneed to spend so much on a laptop with too good specs. Might as well just use the money to buy accessories/ good speakers or something

VERY RELIABLE... lol

why didnt i think of that!!! get external speaker!! it will probably better than harman/kardon right? if i scratch that speaker out of my specs, do u think L635-1022x or L645-1052x are good? i dont want i3, my father is having a bad experience with it. he is suggesting me to get fujitsu SH560 i5, or mac book pro 13" 2.4GHz.

LOL.... you definitely want a Toshiba ar? O____O There's many other good laptops from other brands worth considering too...
Still, if it must be Toshiba, then yes, the L635/645/655 are the closest to the M900 in terms of price/performance. They more or less offer the same specs, so it ultimately boils down to what laptop size you prefer (and what color too) haha The build of this series of laptops are way better than most brands but the specs is quite a bit of a let down... but most Toshiba buyers don't really care anyway haha
I need to warn you that they are rather glossy though... not suitable for hygienic people

Well.... personally (as an audiophile), the harman/kardon speakers are better (louder too x____x) than cheaper external speakers... you will need to spend at least RM200++ to get really good speakers (I'm assuming you're an audiophile, like me haha ). You can always head to the Home Entertainment>Audiophiles section in lowyat.net, the sifus there are really pro

BTW, when will you be getting your laptop?
If its Toshiba then do check out http://www.celebratewithtoshiba.com/
They're giving away free coupons to extend your local warranty to 3 years (worth RM299). The event last until 31 October.
