USD 149, depends on the online store you are getting from. One wanted to charge me USD 169 for the same shipping option, HECK NO. I had even a quote for DHL at USD 100 but they don't have stock for the notebook and I had to wait for 2 months.

Nope, I'm not planning to get any headset for my laptop. The laptop is actually going to be a desktop replacement for me because my house PC is about 1/2 dead. I'm working a lot these days so instead of rebuilding the PC this laptop will be very convenient for my work at home and on the field but mostly for my home. I'm not an avid gamer but for USD 150 I would invest that in a SSD drive instead of a headset wink.gif

List on the way in a few minutes biggrin.gif

hey guys,
Thanks to Viperion to help sort out the matter with Ken. I have emailed Ken all the necessary confirmation he needs.
It seems there were some confusion regarding my order/address etc. It has since been sorted out and now its solved.  rclxms.gif

my stealth bomber took off too ! XD

Acceptance, July 01, 2010, 4:21 pm, COVINA, CA 91722

im going to get blisters on my fore fingers now...F5! F5! F5! at USPS tracking website  biggrin.gif

Jeffrey, did you do the clean install?
*
Nope, I did not do the clean installation for my Windows. I just burn the recovery discs (6 blanc DVDs) using "AI Recovery Burner".

IMHO, it is good enough for me to keep the default settings of the Windows (factory setting). However, I do uninstall all the bloatwares which I hate the most. doh.gif

You're welcome & it was a pleasure to help a forum member  biggrin.gif

Great news on the take off, you should expect it by end on next week, probably Friday or earliest Thursday if all goes well. I'm past the blister point, I think my finger is about to fall off  laugh.gif  tongue.gif

I'm guessing you are worried about the bloatware in the Notebook when it arrives and the performance of your machine. I would advice you to burn the Recovery DVDs before you do anything else. The moment the notebook is past the initial setup, get ready some DVDs and make an image of the Factory Default System with the provided software before uninstalling anything. You never know when you need the notebook to be in "Out Of The Box Condition" & once changes are done you cannot revert back. Check notebookreview forums for more information on making the recovery DVDs and for Win 7 clean install.

I will immediately start uninstalling all the bloatware after my backup and probably leave the system as is until I screw the OS or change my primary HDD  laugh.gif

Meh, RM 500 for shipping is nothing compared to the price you are paying. The best Asus laptop you can get in the Malaysian market is G51JX-IX044Z-W7U. What is the retail price? RM 8999.00 Recommended List Price from distributor. Total for the G73JH-A1 including shipping is around RM 5800 - RM 6000 max, you do the math tongue.gif

It's actually around 3K or 2999 if you want to be accurate tongue.gif laugh.gif

Nope, it's not. Could be buildtech, no latest update from them yet tongue.gif

Nice numbering sequence, would have been better if it was 9999 laugh.gif They got the Windows 7 Ultimate & Headset bundle for this region. It's the same that's retailing in Aussie. Check the review below for this bundle:
