Today,i went to lowyat to get my benQ-S42. When i arrival there ,i immediately go to Thunder Match Shop at Floor 4...
when i went in tat shop,i saw tat benq S57 is showing on there,but i wan get S42 first.Thus,i ask one staff and him said that is out of stock already .. cry.gif Haiz, then i walk around inside the shop, i met another staff and ask again about S42 and him helped to checked. Wow, they still has a display S42 at Ground floor (display? yes,display laptop..but no choice ,that is last one them sell it with RM2199)

After i knew that news,i immediately went down to Ground floor there.Yes,i found it ...then i ask staff to get it .That Malay staff helped to prepare it ,but him unable open the laptop lock and said the laptop lock is "Rosak" ,it is unable open ..try choose other la. Shit, i`m disappointed about it. I went out walk walk and consider how about S57.. rclxub.gif

Finally,i decided go get S57, but i ask another Chinese staff helped me to solved the laptop because i wan buy it. OK! he said call someone to open it due to laptop lock is "ROSAK". Hence, i went to took my dinner and came back that shop at 7:15pm..Then they showed me that S42 ... vmad.gif What the hell ,that laptop lock still there ,they only cut and pull out the laptop lock cable ,they unable open it. Shit ,what i should do ? I dun buy it or buy it? after i consider a while ,i decided buy it ..but i try to get a great discount from them.

The Chinese staff offer me RM2169 without free gifts , sweat.gif holy shit , i get the RM2150 from that malay staff..OKOK...they offer me RM2150 ...haiz ,i also tired about it ,spend a whole day at there...ok la ,rm2150 la ..deal it.

RM2150 , benQ-S42 Processor C2D , Geforce 9600 GT 256RAM , 2GB RAM , 320 HD space...you all think it worth ?( plus one broken laptop lock embed it... the broken lock will consume my effort and time to solve it in future...damn )

What i think ? i disappointed their services ,i ask some question to thunder match staffs although i knew the answer already ... but they simple answer me ,for example...

1. It is last one ,so offer you RM2199 ...( what i know ? it is year end promotion ,no it is last one )
2. Where the BenQ service center at KL ?( i help you check later..but him ignored me ,shit)
3. Can you give me more discount ? ( cannot la , i sell you RM2150 now ,only earn you RM1 ,,that distributor price is RM2149...you think i will believe you? when i bought Acer 4920 in the past ,it is RM2.5K...but actually acer industry sell them RM1.6K )
.
.
.

and other technician questions ...no 1 answer for me is satisfy.

Now ,i try to install WinXP on BenQ..haiz ,it DVD rom seem has a problem,,noisy...cant install now.I not sure is DVD rom or Disc problem...

I jz want suggest if you need to purchase a gaming laptop in budget 3k ,you can get S57 from Thunder Match ..It is price RM2999,it worth ..ATI 4650 , Cool processor 2.5Ghz,2gb RAM , 500gb HD space and Blur ray rom ,,wah.

and ..i ask that staff when you company will import new S42 laptop ? he said "next week .." ," har ? then how much it ? it is still RM2199? "

he said " Maybe ,from RM2199 to RM2499",but no sure the benQ still has store or not~ Why i get it today ? i cant wait to next week ,i need use laptop on next weekend ..it is urgent ...


Added on January 1, 2010, 10:53 pmand if i dun buy from them ..i may get S42 from StarTec ,but starTect sell it RM2699 ,no discount !!! i wan save 500 ,so i force to take the S42 (plus 1 broken laptop lock head,it is free)


For now , i try install win xp due to it is free doc ..dun know how ?~but i feel it DVD rom no good ,you must balance your laptop else you can hear noisy sound from that laptop...

go find some pro thief ... they can unlock the lock for you. XD

It's not worth it. It's a display model and it's got a damn lock stuck to it. 500 off the retail price hardly justifies it. Any dealer at LYN could have given you a better deal, maybe not the same model. There are people at LYN that sell brand new/cancelled order/display at nearly half price.

Windows XP doesn't come with ACHI/SATA drivers. Set your BIOS HDD controller to compatibility mode or slip in the drivers using some program which I can't remember, google it.
