O___o N55SF would take a long time before its reaches M'sia, and it'll be expensive, might want to omit it unless if you're not in a hurry to buy |

(= Please help me on tat~ Should i buy or not wor? The new N53SV sounds great too eh.. Well, as mentioned before, weight is never really the problem for us guys Its rather the size that matters, being big and bulky, its not really easy to bring along the laptop without knocking it. This is based on my own experiences, I used to own a 2.7kg 15.6" Qosmio F60 as well, but just couldn't handle it since I move about alot in Uni... Its totally different with the m14x, it may be 3kg+, but its way smaller  For Mechanical Engineering, a quad core i7 and FullHD will help in your future work, so its either XPS 15, or the new N53Sv (though I would advice you to check and see whether its really FullHD or not)  |
