Basically, A42Ja is just X42Jr with better GPU....
But at that price point, getting the Acer 5750G or Lenovo Y560P with the latest i7 2630QM is a much better choice and both also got similar/better GPU than A42Ja... This post has been edited by lee_what2004: Jan 27 2011, 05:44 PM |

So they dont have heat problem and soft speakers as in A42ja ?But at that price point, getting the Acer 5750G or Lenovo Y560P with the latest i7 2630QM is a much better choice and both also got similar/better GPU than A42Ja...  |

QUOTE(unknowndevices @ Jan 27 2011, 06:20 PM) the model suggested can't turn to tablet right? its just a laptop? IMO, the windows based tablet PC is not a suitable choice for a few reasons:1. the touchscreen experience is not as good as ipad or other capacitive tablet devices. 2. Windows OS is quite power consuming when compared to ipad or SGT. 3. It gets heats up easily compared to ipad. By the way, is there any thread for the tablet recommendation? |

QUOTE(eugenechiuu @ Jan 25 2011, 12:20 AM) Does Malaysia even have it? The one in senq doesnt even state the specs.. well this is the brochure.. I have doubts about the pricing even it's the real thing.. Cause 4741G is around rm2.5k.. If it's so, then it's good bargain.. But then timelineX series would still have better build and battery life..

My mum which is a gadget naive woman bashes ipad because she cannot use it to visit the stock market website because ipad cannot support java. and ipad doesn't support the software i'm using in the office. no apps for database entry in healthcare service industry. What a shame for my ifag uncles that support and promote Apple products....
