agree with u too...if 2.2k really better go for a better spec of notebook.. or might top up a bit ... rm1399 for 1215b is really not bad..hopefully during pc fair next month will got ready stock..

i think 40 gb is enough and the hdd i can use it externally..or myb i sell it or trade it to fund the ssd..

ya bro,,hopefully early april got stock d..

watekeke, u confirm go for this or still waiting? saw ur sig so many things in ur wish list

i think so la bro..since no news on dm1z n acer ao522 oredy down thre,,he3..i guess dm1z will be slightly mahal than 1215B..
well,,its still a wishlist..once i got it,,i rmuv it..he3..
n im still waiting too,,waiting for money la of coz..

now been using 4710z for ages..

hope that's the case, I forgot where the review I've read that says the 6310 is not as good as the Ion GPU

One thing I can tell about SSD from my old eeepc, it can stand some serious abuse, I dropped my old netbook god knows how many times. lol. i doubt the 1215b can stand since the case is thinner, but after getting used to bootup and app start times on SSD, it's hard to go back.

well it says similar here if just the GPU, but E-350 CPU pawns Atom far far, so gaming would definitely be better since CPU plays a part as well..

i watched the revieew on utube on gaming on 1215B..
so far fifa11 kinda lag..can see the slow motion movement..darn...ha3..
modern warfare kinda ok i think..but i don play that game..
the best i will play is Football manager n CS Zero..

so do i..waiting for money to roll in first.. if not budget not enuff..my wish list also too long already..

Added on March 15, 2011, 8:45 ami dun play game..the most is fb game..and HD video.. or youtube.. so i think still ok for me.. but i am wondering how much improvement in term of speed and ability to handle those game compare c50 to e350? 25% better?

well,,in that case..i donno..he3..im also wanna try to watch 720p pr 1080p video..n bluray also..cant wait..

Netbook arent intended for gaming.If you intend to do so,you should get notebook

Zacate can,but only light gaming and other multimedia purposes such as HD Video..et

not a problem there are already people upgrading to 4gb win7ultimate and ssd if you read it here you will understand acer 522 review

how bout ur 522 siksa?? if i get ao522,,upgrade 4gb ram,,w7 ultimate,,40gb ssd,,stil under rm1500 u think??

acer ao522 = RM1299
4gb ram = RM125
40GB ssd = RM340
Win7 U = RM620 retail/RM599 oem
Win7 Home = RM370 retail/RM285 oem
Win7 Pro =RM575 retail/RM413 oem

it is more than 1.5k

but if you buy

asus 1015b (RM1099) + 40gb ssd (RM340) = RM1439, add 4gb ram (RM125) its RM1564,add win7 home 64bit oem (RM285) its RM1849.

it is up to the shop if they want to give discount,ask them,usually if you buy it from them then upgrade they will give discount.

still 1015b good price with better spec ...siksa, how long the battery can last for a single charge?

whoa..
ok assume that i hve already the w7,,he3..
and can get the ao522 free dos,,w/o free gift myb,,rm 1200,,
the 4gb ram rm130,,can sell the 2gb ,,
ssd 40 gb rm 320,,the 320gb can sell oso,,
for me roughly rm 1.6k..

but its stil depend on the money..he3..
myb the ssd i upgrade later..

Ah, another month to wait for the 1215b. hopefully cracking open the case won't be too difficult for me.. bye bye warranty..

I wonder if the local asus distro will help 'change' the HDD for slightly higher price yet still retain the netbook warranty.
(O_o)

Basic OS/Apps prices now AFAIK.
Win7 HomeP rm359
Win7 U rm635
Office HS 2010 rm227

So with rm600, can get ori win7 and office already. .
Win 7 too overkill in price, win 7 starter too retarded.

5/7 hours with wifi on,internet browsing on balance mode.


i dont think you can have that free dos but who knows?

that ram you can sale but i think you should keep that hdd as your secondary hd 40gb not so much liao... even now my hdd is already half full

BTW ive tried that cityville it work fine,my only problem is the connection here sucks...

siksa,,i got other 500gb hdd..samsung..
so,,no need the ori one..but myb i save the ori one sell this samsung..
n i forgot if crack open will harm the wrnty..darn..

how not to make the wrnty "bye-bye"?

thats good...if cityville can run smoothly i think should not be big problem with other game in fb.. now either 1015 or 1215... i found that asus 1015 with rm1099 is quite a good buy also... replace the ram to 4gb still cheaper than 1299 of acer.. although hdd is 250gb only.. but still enuff for a netbook.. my dell mini 9 only 8gb ssd and even open barnbuddy also lagging.. sigh.... .. but i think 1015 size suit my purpose.. easy to put in bag and carry around especially when travelling used...hopefully pc fair got free upgrade the ram

5-7 hours is quite good already .. but i saw samsung netbook with n570 can last up to 13.5hours.. but still like asus more..
