QUOTE(lee_what2004 @ Feb 11 2011, 07:57 PM) Budget ? Screen quality wise in 14'' and 15'' is around HP Envy 14 with Radiance display, Dell XPS 15 with B+RGLED, Dell Studio XPS 1647, etc... 8GB ram should be around RM250++ Budget is below 4k. Actually I already ordered xps14, but they need to wait until march only deliver to me. And I need laptop to use now, so im considering to cancel the order and buy another 1 in cash.

QUOTE(mou yok @ Feb 11 2011, 09:31 PM) any  I'm going to omit netbooks due to their lack of power and very small sizes Toshiba Portege T210 (11.6) or T230 (13) can last a minimum of 6 hours. Not sure about the others like Lenovo Thinkpad Edge 11, Acer 1830TZ, Dell M101z... But I think battery life should be around 5 hours...

Bros and sifus, I would like to ask about the ASUS A42JY-VX195V. Sellers states it has nVidia Optimus technology but it's not stated on the official website and there's no reviews/unboxing of it. Feels alienated somehow

Aiyo. That laptop seems so perfect for my usage. No switchable graphics for that machine?

I would guess its similar with A42J with low end AMD graphics, so no switchable graphics

GT550M is just faster clocks GT540M, only 96SP... GT555M should be the quiet a jump since it using 144SP...
