QUOTE(monza84 @ Jun 15 2010, 07:09 AM) Ok, budget is done = RM2k...now all we need is your requirements  ...what usually you use the laptop for...without this we can recommend you endless of laptops  ... Its always better for a notebook rather than Netbook, unless you want to take it around always...Netbook is rather the same in terms of performance  ..different would be the warranty and the type of service that it offers  My requirement is just simple internet surfing,torrent,chatting,watching movies,play music and edit some word docs..no games. What my priority is the laptop should be less than 2kg,small n thin, less than rm2000. Any laptop u can recommend? This post has been edited by barjoyai: Jun 15 2010, 06:36 PM

Pretty much netbook fits your requirement, else can consider CULV notebook, like Acer 1830TZ, 11.6'', U5400, GMA HD@RM1899 or Inspiron 11z...

The term "dedicated" refers to the fact that dedicated graphics cards have RAM that is dedicated to the card's use, not to the fact that most dedicated GPUs are removable. Dedicated GPUs for portable computers are most commonly interfaced through a non-standard and often proprietary slot due to size and weight constraints

Hi all, I'm buying laptop for my mother. She'll be using it for writing letters, surfing the net and playing audio CD.
1. Brand - any brand would do 2. Budget - not more than RM2500 3. Specs - she wants the color to be customizable, preferably green. She prefers to use genuine Windows and Office. 4. Size - 14" to 15" screen
Hope you guys can help me out.
Thank you.

Yeah I've just checked it out. Few months back I bought a pink Inspiron for my sister, but I think now they removed the color option. Do other brand have this colour customization?

The inspiron still offer colour option, you need to choose higher price model or non-fastrack model though...
Other brand mostly don't offer customization.
