QUOTE(PF T.J. @ Sep 1 2011, 01:29 PM) Its Asus, not Acer? hehe the simulation software that i use runs only in windows. got any gt555m on a 13 inch screen? preferably high end gpu. like tha mac osx, but not many simulation software runs on it.Yeah, MBP 13 would be a good choice as well if you don't mind the OSX  |

QUOTE(lee_what2004 @ Sep 1 2011, 04:05 PM) At least USD 1600 I guess, looks like my taste of laptop, but the price. What you expect from Core i7 + GT555M + IPS screen + thin bezel + 1.6KG + hybrid SSD/HDD 4830TG has throttling problem as well and the battery wear level keep jump up and down.. MacBook Air, its gears to portable and only low voltage processor and integrated GPU..  what's the fuss on the throttling problem? i kinda abandoned the acer brand since 2002 |
