Ahh...the thread has fallen silent as Jeffrey and EvilDevil awaits with high anticipation the arrival of their G73JH hehe.

For the new owners or future owners, I found a problem with the upkeep of my laptop. The mesh grill for the speaker area is a magnet for dust/dirt keeping. And it's hell trying to clean them afterwards. I am not so inclined on trying to take it apart yet . . maybe when the dust/dirt becomes too overbearing for my eyes and ears (if they block the speakers)

I've also installed Dirt 2  and played a few games. To my surprise . . it actually is smoother than my desktop.

My desktop rig :

Intel C2D E8400
Asus P5KPL-AM
Kingston PC-6400 DDR2-800 *2
Seagate 1TB HDD
Silverstone ST56F
Asus HD4850 512MB

So for now, you could say I am pretty happy camper

How about Cyber Clean, the cleaning compound? Probably will work...

ok guys, just want to let everyone know the current status of my 1st ever customer for this laptop. A2 model. earlier than expected.
ETA to arrived at my house in Johore this friday

thanks to namrif for his trust on me, i knw it's never been easier to gain a trust on peoples here 
looking forward to meet him up this coming weekends on my house
and hopefully he wont hesitate to post his unboxing video here too.

RM5100 bro.... ....Aku takut budak corallinkz ni x ambik untung plak...hahaha....x pe , nanti aku belanje mkn , ok ? By the way....Corallinkz is nice person to deal .....highly recommended to all forumer....

haha. thats because he paid me last weeks. few days before. so kinda can squeeze him into that price. today price depends on currency exchange. but i can assure you the lowest also
yup, A2 full factory package.

Yes I am . . but this has nothing to do with the G73JH except that is the main reason why I got the laptop lolz. Now am contemplating on getting an external HDD or just dump most of my files from the PC to the HDD in the laptop. hrmmm 

you really got my respect bro..

God bless you.

.. if you have an extra bucks.

not like you can't gaming with that, don't you

/inb4 SSD >>> all!
if it cost your arm and legs, 7.2krpm is fine too right?

half an arm and leg perhaps, compared to SSD???

anyway, the MSRP for Momentus XT is US$113, US$132 and US$156 for 250GB, 320GB and 500GB respectively...

compared to Momentus 7200.4, which are (e-tailer price) US$55, US$55 and US$85 respectively

i think the 250GB model should hit US$100 once it hit the shelves... still, cheap compared to SSD...

Hi is this laptop available in Malaysia?

well, Mucro Asia still dun ve any stock...

USPS is suppose to deliver to the exact address but currently they might hold ur item at customs either at sepang or mebe other places. Then u need to assign pos malaysia or ur courier company to help u declare it out from customs.

Yesh item arrive at malaysia edi. Now mebe waitin for customs to clear it then can take edi. 

Yeah for that price, but the reliability for disc based hdd is questionable, ssd is very rugged as there's no moving parts. And look at the spec of the momentus XT it's only 4GB flash, and performance wise suppose to be 80% according to seagate. If their technology is really that efficient then really worth to consider.

Well this i dunno as I haven't get any calls yet. If not mistaken usually they will call up and ask if we wanna assign them to be our agent or not. Then later will collect money or will ask us to bank in i suppose. My usual forwarder will bill us later once they kautim the customs. I think tek got more info as he passed his 1st.

Mebe tomorrow morning I might drop by sepang, not sure what time they will open if they run 24 hours then morning 6am i will be there to collect.

Hopefully our Malaysian customs and postal service is better than last time thus my parcel will arrive by tomorrow.  Sadly the M15X still no progress, I duno wuts holding up the item from being shipped, I edi done verifications and stuff.  Tot the M15x might arrive sooner I guess usps beats fedex now.

Mebe I will call customs tomoro. 

Gratz bro, so it means that either u need to pick up from customs or they will deliver to u. Try to check after 5 hours see if there's progress if there's none means the item is held at customs edi.
