Free Dos is good larr, I installed my xps with "ehem" windows 7 ultimate and remove the recovery partition... I dunno why I got so cheap, but when I check my hardware using Everest software, I got all spec like on d web (RM 3699's spec) ahh maybe my Ram make it cheaper coz Kingstone price is only RM260 for 2x4Gb 1333... Just check on site they give us RM400 for add 4gb only(8gb means RM800) :-(

Hh forgot to mention that I got no warranty, coz I my history since I got my 1st phone n lappy(8 yrs ago) they never fail me and never broke any devices till now :-D..so, i think i dont need warranty :-D

well, having a warranty is always a safer choice...

my previous Dell desktop has gone thru the Dell services occasionally, all the PC parts (CPU first, then the Dell 5.1 speakers, then the Dell 19-inch monitor) have been fully replaced before~ XD
*
errrmm actually since I bought my 1st device till now (desktop pc, mobile phones and notebooks), I never used every warranty that they give to me... and fortunately I still have my: 10yrs pentium 4 desktop, 8yrs SE W810i, 6yrs SE P1i and Axioo notebook, 2yrs iPhone 3G, 7mths toshiba netbook. all still kicking except for battery life :-D

note: I never broke all devices above :-D thus never use the warranty itself.. so, thats why I begin think that I dont need warranty at all :-D

n then last Nov 2010 I bought my new iPhone 4 without warranty and this week I bought XPS without warranty too :-D

PS.
1. I dont like play games with PC or Lappy coz I prefer XBOX n PS3 >> maybe this is one reason why I never broke my PC or Lappy :-D
2. I never turn on my PC or Lappy 24hours for download or torrenting, coz I already have 30Gb private server that can queue downloads, such as torrent. So, my lappy can sleep too :-D >> 2nd reason :-)
3. I only use my lappy for design, streaming movie, chat, emailing and internet only :-D

thts why I so confident bought this XPS without warranty hehehe :-D
