Hey guys, I'm thinking of getting either the A43SV or the A53SV. Are there any major differences in the feel of the A53's keyboard compared to the A43?(I've already tried the A53 keyboard)
And is the A53 only available with the UK keyboard layout?

ya... i use it to put books, notes only.. everyday bring for attend lecture.

Should feel the same since both keyboards are essentially the same except for the inclusion numpad on the A53. It's only available in the US layout here.

I tried doing that but with the laptop is totally impossible. I prefer the older bag. At least it had an extra compartment at the back.

Thanks

laptop i use back pack

gt notebook GPU thread or x?

Same, but sometimes need to go for meetings, bring backpack look funny.

Closest thing is this thread: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1109389

i never bring back pack for meeting.
yeah, this ts..

Hi guys, just wanted to ask owners of Asus N43SL whether it has Nvidia Optimus or not?

i checked on wiki and asus malaysia,it doesn't have optimus.

really? caused i've read n43sl review somewhere which says it have optimus... if really la no optimus.. then what the heck is asus doing.. SB but no optimus?

Well not having Optimus can be a blessing in disguise depending on how you look at it. No iffy problems with it.

Hi fellow asus-ians.
i have several questions about asus n hope u guys can help

1.How good is the battery life of A43sv? (normal use, not gaming)
2.How good is the battery life of N43sl? (normal use, not gaming)
3.Does N43sl has optimus?

If it doesn't have it... Its not the 1st one, and probably not the last

All laptops with Nvidia Optimus will have an Nvidia Optimus sticker right?
I don't see it on the photos Kelvinclyap88 uploaded

From what I read at the ASUS site, under specifications, it doesn't have OPTIMUS tech, btw ASUS A43SV(or probably other later models with Windows 7) have AHCI mode for SATA enabled by default, which means SATA II/III SSD are just the matter of plug and play!
I don't mind not having OPTIMUS, it's not like I'm a fan of Transformers.
