Hi

need suggestion and recommendations for a laptop.

brand - doesnt matter but prefer those that are reliable and less problem
budget - 2k
spec - aiseh not good in spec. but mainly for web browsing. no need cd/dvd rom. maybe minor photo editing like import/export, crop. not major ones. prefer fast boot/opening programs.
size - prefer 15in but open to suggestion as well.

thanks

edit - forgot. plus a reasonable hard disk capacity.

The new Inspiron 15R (i3-2310M + Intel HD3000@~RM2k) would be a good choice...
Do refer to Dell Malaysia for more details....
There's even one Inspiron 15 priced at RM1.3k only (source:http://www.dell.com/my/p/inspiron-15-intel-n5010/pd), probably typo I think LOL sweat.gif

The new MacBook Pro 13 comes with Intel HD 3000 which is more or less on par with that of ATI5470  nod.gif
Do you really need a powerful GPU for your work?  hmm.gif
Iinm editing depends more on processing power? Unless its 3D stuffs you're working on
I thought i would wanna play games like CODMW2 when i get my new lappie. sweat.gif

Talking bout multimedia editting, my usage is process photo, photoshop. and may be full hd movie editting in the future? icon_question.gif

Then perhaps it would be better to get something more powerful?
Dell XPS 15, Dell Studio XPS 16 are worth looking into... or perhaps Vaios?

I don't think the MacBook Pro 13 inch could handle with new Intel HD 3000 sweat.gif
I would suggest to take the 15 inch though, it's all powerful and the price is powerful too.
ASUS or Dell thumbup.gif
And there is hackintosh (if you would want to venture into it)
For the price of Macs, you're paying for the brand, the quality and the OS in a very expensive way sweat.gif

Oh, and there's bootcamp if you want to use Windows on a Mac to play games.
Recently removed support for Vista, only 7 for now

This one Inspiron 15R (i3-2310M + Intel HD3000@~RM2k) has better CPU and GPU nod.gif
Its newer technology, so its best to pick this 1 instead nod.gif
If you don't mind the specs, you can also go for the RM1.3k one (if it exists), and use the remaining money to extend the warranty

Acer 5750 specs/price was really good.  Was tempted with 5750 spec/price when it launch... but after try it, don't like the touch & feel... so decide to wait for N53SN.

yea...seriously i dont like the keyboard at all...

QUOTE(Najmods @ Mar 15 2011, 03:34 PM)
Why? 5750 is thin, and IMO better than ASUS offering and cheaper too. Don't be blinded by the things we don't own, instead enjoy the thing we have smile.gif

erm.... yeah i buy it becos it is cheap and come with i7.... but now i was thinking "is it i need to use up i7?" LOL

I did look at the New XPS 15 also.

I customize to:
new i7 SB
8Gb Ram
Full HD 1980x1280 resolution
Backlit keyboard
9 cell batt.

then ended up around rm4.5k already. blink.gif

btw, just wanna check, if my lappie got Full HD display, means it shouldnt lag when i play 1080 recorded video right? Or the normal HD ones also can smoothly?

Hi, I'm currently looking for a laptop so that I can bring it with me to travel or just hanging out.

1. Brand: Preferably Dell or Asus or Toshiba or if you have any other brands to recommend then you can just tell me.

2. Budget: My budget is hopefully somewhere less than 2k.

3. Specs: Whats most important in my specs is Intel proc, at least 2GB ram, and 500GB HDD.

4. Size: Preferably 12-13" cause I want it to be lightweight if I were to bring it to travel.

Thanks in advance.

anybody know how much is the fee for warranty extension for thinkpad laptop?
by default 1 year warranty is provided by lenovo for thinkpad laptop, am i right?
the thinkpad edge 13 is using i3 or C2D? hmm.gif
because i found some review said that it's using C2D but the one that i saw is i3
or just the 14 is using i3?
so any comment on this laptop is good or bad? laugh.gif
i assume it's good since it's a thinkpad

i like the feels thinkpad gives me because it's way solid than my laptop sad.gif
regret for not get a thinkpad sad.gif

Definitely won't lag laugh.gif
Its a powerful lappy o... Even way cheaper models can handle the load...
Personally I think you should decrease the specs and spend some money on the warranty...
