After checking through all the notebooks, I'm going to go for the Asus A42Jr/A52JR is there's immidiate stock over at the shop near my place.

around RM3k-4k

and how you can consider HP DV6 with that budget?
Usage? screen size?

haha actually u dunno the real price of hp dv6t
usage is mainly for entertainment- high def. movies, gaming,
prefer screen size which is 15" or smaller

HP DV6 is RM4999....
If mainly entertainment, can consider Dell Studio XPS 16 or Vaio EB18, 15.5'', i3 330M + ATi HD5650, FullHD + BDROM@RM3999
Gaming wise, either Asus N82Jv, 14'', i5 520M + Nvidia GT335M@RM3999, Lenovo Y460, 14'', i5 540M + ATi HD5650@RM3599, Vaio EA16, 14'', i5 520M + ATi HD5650@RM3999..

wow..
Dell 14r win.. =]
yea.. just upgrade there and here only.. but in price matter change differently..

Brand: anything except acer please...

Budget: >RM3000

Uses: for university assignment, entertainment, music, but NOT GAMING...

hmmm 14" or 15"? if u wan, u can choose Vostro 3400 / 3500. Vostro 3400 choose that with Windows 7 Professional package.

din mind about size 14" or 15"...but dell vostro is it easy to buy? i heard only can buy it online...or izzit for vostro 3700 only? because my friend is a n00b about internet so she don't want to buy it online....

My suggestion:
Lenovo G460 @ RM2699

A52JK-SX169V 14" HD (GL, LED) @ RM2899

Hi

Im looking for a new laptop. Hope you can give me a few choices, probably 5 recoemendations, so i can narrow down my choices from thousand of laptops out there and do my research accordingly.

The following criteria is a must:

-Intel Pentium or Celeron, core 2 duo
-Battery life at least 4hrs and doesn't get hot easily. (My current dell inspiron get hot within 2hours of usage.)
-light weight, max 1.8kg (with battery)
-at least 12inch.

My budget is RM3k, of course i wouldn't complain, if it's lower than that.
Any brand is fine with me, as long as reasonably reputable ones.
DVD driver is not crucial, so if it doesn't have one, its fine.

As mentioned, please do give me a few, so i can do some research and comparison as well.

Thank you thank you....

hye all. i really need recommendation for the laptop about 3k. before this, my budget only 2.5 k, but now has increased to 3k. can anyone suggest me?
i need it for working purposes, gaming, do not mind 14'/15' as long as it is the best bank for 3k. can anyone help?

help me please.
which one is better,
laptop with t4400 or t6670?
because some benchmark shows t4400 is better even it is dual core.

Don't bother any pentium / celeron / core2duo procs.
Within 3k, u can get i-series laptop which is better than u mentioned.
Some suggestion for both of u:
Lenovo G460 @ RM2699

A52JK-SX169V 14" HD (GL, LED) @ RM2899
