Hi Sifus,

I am currently looking for a notebook with a overall budget of RM 2500 and below. Looking for a 14 inch notebook. So far i see is

Acer 4740G-432G50
Dell 1464-43235G-W7P
DELL VOSTRO V1088

Can anyone recommend me which is the best model to buy? Or recommend other models? Generally this notebook is used for overall usage and some gaming.
