Hi peeps,
I am looking for a laptop which will be brought to UK for study purpose.. 1) Brand---any brand with international warranty 2) Price---under 2.5k~~ 3) Design+weight ----around 2.2kg is acceptable...non smudge surface..(dislike prints all over the lappy) 4) usage --- online...a bit online gaming... I've scanned through the thread and realise HP is rarely being mentioned...why is it so?? |
