me too was hesitated at first....but after being introduced to Sager..I find there are no other laptop that can catch my eyes anymore...lol

I want to get that 460M at RM4k no matter how  

Don't think its necessary..
Why keep negative lol

Just get a cheap laptop to help you get through Uni first. Grad and work. Then get a Sager. By then they would be way more powerful than they are now and the batteries would last longer I guess. Save the money for rainy days. Getting the laptop last year was a serious distraction.

during checkout process, you can choose the payment option whether to pay in full or place deposit

Like we buying stuff in garage sales, it's better to e-mail them with scanned receipt as proof of payment.

lol kahjye is making all of us look like we're all resellers
anyway rush order service isnt applicable during back2back order period
you still have to queue

he have to ask all sorts of things since no malaysia dealer selling this 'beast in portable form'. it's a good chance for us to promote this product.

Of course the quality is good, there's less chance for a Sager/Clevo to fail than other brands.

And speaking about the accessory, I plugged in my friend's HP 100W adapter on my old NP8690 that seemed to fit in. It works! But the power isn't enough to run games properly though. If you get a random brand 180W/120W for your NP8150/NP8130, then in theory it should be still fine. Even plugging a higher watt adapter will still make it work, with the addition of having spare power, so the higher watt adapter doesn't run as hot.

Seems like I annoyed the hell out of Mucro
Oh well... Three more loooong weeks...

yep, went for LPC after checking their personal ratings, and hey, the person (Larry) was very friendly. He even replied to me when the shipment from the factory to his office got stuck for no reason, but he said that he's working on it to check why my item got delayed from the factory. and in less than 24 hrs, he sent another email saying that the item was finally being shipped to his office. Furthermore, he actually included my mail in the USPS track & confirm email address list rather than giving me the receipt number (or actually he did both jobs). i would say that is like first-class treatment from customer POV

Kahjye,

i would expect orders right now to arrive quite late.

reason was there might be a long Q from ppl who pre-ordered their lappies during the SandyBridge 67-series chipset SATA pin current leakage issue.

Ordered mine 11 feb, item was ready to be shipped by 6th march (if not my own problem for keep on changing address hahaha), currently either still at LAX or already inside plane on d way to Msia (based on one of my previous post about my USPS status)

oh din see dat one coming.

USPS express mail usually takes a day, plus no hassle at customs? yeah i live in malaysia. this is awesome news! 

i not kaya one. NP8130 stock only hehe.
detailed specs:

err, i actually posted in my previous post about the item is actually still in shipping. (and funny though, u actually replied to my post.. ")

anyway, back on topic.

looking at 1st post, NP8130 review by xoticpc, having a P8861 3DmarkVantage score isn't bad. really.

for gaming purposes, i actually referred here before confirm to buy the NP8130 (you just need to filter out 460M if you feel there's just too much info to indulge at the website):

http://www.notebookcheck.net/Mobile-Graphi...List.844.0.html
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Computer-Game...ds.13849.0.html

also quite important to understand why i din really care bout CPU, but more on GPU:
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Processor-Per...es.23238.0.html

^Well, you need to consider the resolution as well, since N53Sn will be running @1366x768 while Sager @1920x1080...

this is a lil bit out of topic:

graphics core/core speed(MHz)/shader speed(MHz)/mem speed(MHz)/number of bits/number of pipelines
550m/740/1480/900/128/96
460m/675/1350/1250/196/192

that's why 460m wins. wider bits meaning better throughput, more pipelines should be meaning better parallel processing. Core speed /shader speed was perhaps slow maybe because it's an older hardware compared to 550m (460m was introduced late Q3 2010, 550m introduced early Q1 2011)

It seems good to me.
It's i7-2720QM with Geforce 485.
I'll test it when I return home.

Yes, Mucro.
I placed order on 19 Jan 2011 (if my memory serves me right).
Mucro confirmed delivery last Thursday. It took 3 working days to deliver the unit from Singapore to JB.

got mine early last week! 

pretty good, on max speed, it idles the at about 35-38 for the proc while 38-40 for the gpu without the a/c turned on.
although the fans can get pretty noisy... but im on my headphone most of the time anyways, so its not really bothering me

define your doubt in 20 word or less.

j/k. You may search for a seller to help you buying stuffs overseas, if you have doubts buying straight from the reseller.

its just sg >.> .. last time people buy from US nothing to be worried

if you're staying near singapore, how about take some of your free time going down to singapore and buy straight from mucro office?
