I will buy this machine from MUCRO after this machine is available again on 26.03.10. RM5,600 without customization is still consider expensive. I am going to change the BR Reader to DVD DL Drive, it save a lot. At least can cover a bit of TNT shipping cost later.

Hello everyone, i plan to buy ROG G73JH-A2 from GenTech Computers but sadly they don't have any stock of that laptop at this moment. I don't know how long to wait. Another way to get this machine fast is customize the A1 into 'no blue ray' and it save me $96. Is it ok to let GenTech technician to 'operate' the machine by exchange the blue ray drive with DVD DL Drive or I place the pre-order A2 first and wait?

thx Viperion for the advice..but they still need to 'operate' the machine.. i'm still worry coz better to get the Asus factory made machine rather than i suffer from hardware failure after got my A1 in hand later..

thx Mark..much appreciate it. will contact Ken through email.

Message from Ken Lee ( GenTechPC ):
'G73JH-A2 is not in stock and next shipment will have to wait 2 weeks. we do have A1 in stock and it's ready to ship'

Do I really need to pay international surcharge $15 as asked by Ken?

@Viperion, payment through palpay

International Surcharge:

Customer who is outside US/Canada and UK region need to pay the international surcharge coz US paypal will charge GenTechPC MORE if there is customer like me who want to pay using paypal. Actually GenTechPC will only receive wire transfer if there is purchase from international customers but that's why like Mark and Jeffery said they provide NO.1 service to their customers. So there are paypal payment for international customers and we should appreciate their effort. Just pay the surcharge..

Below was some reviews on G73JH particularly about battery life comments:

1. Hothardware

2. In our battery rundown tests, the ASUS G73Jh lasted for 87 minutes. Annoyingly, this means it will conk out at the pivotal moment in most feature-length
movies. That said, it would be unfair to expect anything more from a desktop replacement model. Our advice is to use a wall outlet. [source: Good Gear Guide

Hope it helps.

I got my A2 unit from GenTech PC just for RM5565.00 including everything. I have dealt with Mucro Asia before and they only replied my email with simple and yet short message: "We don't know yet"...As Jeffrey said, it's total different story if compared with Ken Lee. He replied my questions even in the late night ( California ) See..a lot of different. One thing that worries me now is WHEN THE KASTAM WILL CALL ME TO COLLECT MY A2?

I got my 'stealth fighter' TODAY!!! It's only took 7 DAYS to reach my place, what a fast delivery using USPS. Thanks Ken Lee from GenTechPC. Highly recommended!!!

Guys, you can refer my shipping info at page 69.

@amir_kaldra

I trace my lappy by calling Pos Malaysia at 1300 300 300. After they said my lappy reached local post office today, I went there straight away and just wait for half an hour to collect a 'really big box' from Pos Malaysia.
