i asked the SA to remove the 36 month AV
but he said it's free gift, if remove, the price wont reduce, try to ask for MS office, cant get it, if want MS office, no discount? sweat.gif
i just tell him to upgrade the warranty and GC

for the cooler many people recommended zalman nc2000..im using cm notepal infinite, so far so good...

the thing that i dont like about cm notepal infinite is the cleaning process, very difficult the get rid of the dust..

I'm not really a supporter of McAfee, instead a fan of Avast... biggrin.gif Been trying to ask whether can the AV be removed and give discount to upgrade other parts but what the sales representative say was "it's bundled as a free item", so u either take it or leave it but stil no - in price... =.= That was the final best price of 5499 excluding any case, including the belkin 17 bag + rm117 was the best final price they can offer. According to the sales representative he send twice to the management for discount approval... @@ Few of my fren got their laptop "unluckily" spoiled just right after their 1 year warranty and spent 1k to repair, so that's y i upgraded that warranty.  yawn.gif

Thx for the welcome.  laugh.gif

Jz remembered i posted this sometime ago... Told u they won't let u remove the antivirus, "it's bundled as a free item, if u remove it the price will not be lowered", according to the sales representative that dealt with me.... They give maximum discount of RM 200 for purchase under RM 5500, RM 500 for above RM 5501, so i think they let u choose a upgrade within the discount or u don't want the upgrade but discount in price only. So actually u can get a free bag for the same price, but i think it's better u "buy" the bag with the RM 200 discount given, cz RM 200 - (bag price) = the remaining they won't reduce ur total price.

Which model u bought? I'm still waiting for mine to arrive... It's currently in the process of "ship from factory (arrived in main hub)"... Duno stil nid how long... T_T NC2000 price now i think is around 18x - 19x, found somewhere on garage sales they selling for 188, mayb u can try looking for them, can't really remember whose post.

So ivan92 how much was the final price for your XPS 16 after discount? All they gave was antivirus?

I am thinking of buying the XPS 16, waiting to see if it is worth it. Advantage is Full HD of course, which other laptops don't have.
And the HD 5730 which is better than Nvidia GT 240M and GT 335M.

Having used 3 new laptops in the past 6 months I have become somewhat scared.

Hmm if you upgraded to HD 5730 and 2yr + 1yr CompleteCover Warranty it does not look like you were given RM200 discount Unless you count the AntiVirus.

Yeah, it's heavier and bulkier, at first I found it inconvenient, but after a while you'll get used to carrying it around.

Guys (especially Dell XPS 16 users and Windows 7 users)

I'd like to ask a Noob question.

Ok so when you want to remove your USB hard drive or thumbdrive you click the small green icon at the bottom right of the screen.

How long does it take for the small grey list of USB devices plugged in
(the one that says Eject/Remove Drive F: etc)?

On my laptop and my friend's laptop it took around 8-10 seconds! Why is it so long? Shouldn't it be instant?

I know this is not necessary (ejecting this way) I just want to know what's going on.

THANKS smile.gif
