Hi everyone.

I'm going to college for A-Levels on 6th June.

Here's some details of my requests for recommendation:

1. Brand - Anything reliable.

2. Budget - RM3000

3. Specs - Latest available specs within my budget, great battery life (hopefully more than 6 hours per charge)

4. Size - 14"

5. Use - Regular school work, internet surfing

6. Extra Notes - I'm considering Acer TimelineX 4830TG (poisoned from the thread lol). Is there any other better laptops?

7. EDIT-added Notes - Looks are extremely important. laugh.gif

Thanks!

So I'm between 4830TG, A41Sv and HP Pavilion DV4 then.

At this point I'm thinking that looks are the most important thing in my decision, since they are pretty much the same, yes?

Hey everyone.

I know I've posted multiple times in this thread before asking for recommendations, but please bare with me. tongue.gif

I'm off the college within a week, so I have to get a laptop fast.

But if there will be newer, better models coming out then I don't mind waiting up to a month to get it.

Anyway, here's the details:

1. Brand: Any

2. Budget: RM2000 to RM4000

3. Specs: SandyBridge processor and mainstream/performance GPU preferred. If possible, match or win my current desktop's specs (i7 860 + HD4770 + 4GB RAM). High battery life (more than 5 hours). Chiclet keyboard. Back-lit keyboard for bonus points! drool.gif

4. Size: Preferably 14" but 15.6"/16" might be considered if there are miniscule difference.

5. Use: Microsoft Office, media (video and audio) playback, internet browsing

6. Priority: Laptop design > Specs > Thickness > Weight > Screen Size

That's about it, thanks in advance!
