Save money on the portable lappy, as long as the specs can support your needs, it's enough already. Capable laptops are quite cheap nowadays nod.gif
I think you should allocate more money for getting another GPU for your desktop thumbup.gif

Sorry guys this questions might be out topic from the original topic but I really don't want to open up a new thread for just asking a simple question. Ok, here's my questions, may I know the warranty provided by the manufacturer include dust cleaning service? Btw, my laptop is under Toshiba local warranty.

Personally I would go for 4830TG due to it's value for money or else just go for A43SV instead.

Nope, dust cleaning is not included. But should other components fail and you need to send your lappy back to Toshiba, you could always request them to clean out the dust.
The technicians there charges RM100 to help clean up the dusts sweat.gif
Perhaps you should try vacuum cleaning the vents, or just open the laptop up, should be a lot of videos available on the internet. Or maybe you can ask lee_what2004 sifu laugh.gif

thanks for the reply! i dont like the blue colour scheme of the 4830TG but i'm still leaning towards it. prefer the dark grey colour of the 4750G...whats the build quality like? need it to last me at least 2 years.... the irreplaceable battery might be a problem too ):

LOL, I was just about the recommend the 3550 laugh.gif
How come they cancel you? Payment not accepted? hmm.gif

13":
Aspire 3750G, i5-2410M + Nvidia GT520M@RM2199

14":
Acer Aspire 4750G, i5-2410M + Nvidia GT 520@RM2249, 3 years local limited warranty
MSI FX420, i5-2410M + AMD HD6470@RM2099, FreeDOS/RM2299(W7HP), 3 years warranty
Lenovo G470, i3-2310M + Intel HD3000@RM1599, FreeDOS
LifeBook LH531, i3-2310M + Intel HD 3000@RM1899, FreeDOS

If its me, I would go for the MSI, due to the 3 years warranty (1st year global).. warranty is rather important in budget-line laptops, for a peace of mind

Quality-wise, TimelineX series is better than the Aspire series nod.gif

4750G isn't a bad choice, I found the built quality is good enough for it's price tag. Why don't you think about Asus laptop? hassle free to think about the warranty as it comes with 2 years warranty, so no need put on extra money for the warranty purpose.

Thanks sifus!

See!! This is my dilemma T.T

Btw, what are the recommended Asus laptops for my case? I never really liked Asus, only recently open to the idea of owning an Asus laptop...

I'm leaning towards the timelineX already, but still keen on exploring Asus. Also thinking of an i3 with 6-8gb setup. how laaaa T.T

omg i never knew i was so fickle.....

Planning to sell your lappy and get an Ivy Bridge powered one soon? hmm.gif
Usually Dell stores don't display Vostro and Lattitude business models, probably due to low demand sad.gif
Yeah, you should go and touch and feel each laptop and then decide, specs ain't everything when buying a laptop nod.gif
As for USB3.0, unless you transfer lots of time for most of the time, its not really needed...
Not many choices only la laugh.gif

If you want better specs, then 15.6" Acer 5750G (i7-2630QM + Nvidia GT540M@RM2899) nod.gif
Usually smaller-sized laptops have longer battery life, in which case the TimelineX 4830TG, Asus A43Sv will be good nod.gif

That, my friend, is considered very few options liao laugh.gif
If only the Acer 3830T/3830TG is available here, it will probably be cheaper than the Acer 4830TG
Personally I like the Lenovo G470 because of the really ergonomic keyboard and a comparatively better design (doesn't look cheap) thumbup.gif
