Your brand is too specific laugh.gif No such laptopĀ  sweat.gif

Others:
Lenovo Y470, i7-2630QM + Nvidia GT550M@RM2999[JBL]
Asus N43Sn, i7-2630QM + Nvidia GT550M *buy from Singapore

Or fork out more to get Alienware M14x, i5-2410M + Nvidia GT555M (1.5GB)@RM4199[Klipsch], backlit keyboard *this one is not light@~3kg brows.gif

Coolness and 14" don't really come together....

From personal experience,
Lenovo G470, i5-2410M + HD3000 @ RM1900 (4GB DDRIII RAM from Evernew!)
Can last very long period of time on battery, heating issue doesn't exist

Everything works fine here. Keyboard is superbly good, tactile is just with the right force, very silent keys too.
There are people complaining about the wifi signal strength, somehow it's fine for me on both 802.11g/n

Hi, please recommend me a laptop that is below 3k.

Brand: Asus, Dell... doesn't matter as long as reliable and robust.
Size: 14 / 15 inch
Price: Sub 3k
Spec:
--------------------

Usage: A lot of reading journal + doing programming in Visual Studio 2010 & Ms SQL 2008.

Proc: Probably i5 with turbo boost. <--- VS2010 is a b**** on my old Acer 4530 (Turion dual core 2 GHz).
RAM: 4GB ram at least.
Keyboard: Backlitted keyboard. <-- work on bed, light off.
Battery: Long battery life (no need discrete graphic card). <--- most important
HDD : size doesn't matter.

Additional note: I have a PC for gaming, multimedia and other heavy stuff. For laptop, the heaviest will be Visual Studio + Ms SQL 2008 express. I need this laptop for work and research purpose.

Please advise. Thanks.
