QUOTE(PF T.J. @ Jun 8 2011, 03:02 PM) Err.... for the shops, you might need to go there and bargain laio Any shops recommended and shops to avoid? Lenovo is a China brand, but they have their own ways of doing things, they have their own innovation and such. Not a bad brand |

QUOTE(PF T.J. @ Jun 8 2011, 10:56 PM) Yeah, I've always deal with Cycom lol I got my Samsung HD103SJ from them  You can ask the shops around Cycom e.g. PC Zone etc. and just go for the one selling the cheapest Walked the whole building and only Cycom sells it. I guess I think I would want to find one with free upgrade to 4GB RAM too  |

^Even I prefer the GUI instead
There are limitations to the GUI version though, but don't worry, those limitations are hardcore ones |
