Dell is the one of the best when it comes to warranty support
But then the current Dell XPS 15 is not very good (because of the relatively weaker GT540m)...
Perhaps you can consider:
Asus N55SF-SX265v, i7-2670QM + Nvidia GT555M@RM3699[Bang & Olufsen]; USB3.0, Sonic Master subwoofer

Asus G53Sx-SZ039v, i7-2630QM + Nvidia GTX560M (2GB)@RM3999, backlit keyboard, gaming backpack & mouse *top up abit~

HP Dv6-6001TX, i7-2630QM + AMD HD6770@RM3499 [2.63kg]; Beats headphones
HP Dv6-6114TX, i7-2630QM + AMD HD6770 + BluRay@RM3799 [Beats][2.63kg], [4GB RAM] Beats headphones, HP optical mouse, HP 500GB external HDD

MSI GE620-DX, i7-2630QM + Nvidia GT555M (2GB)@RM2999, 8GB RAM

not really like HP because i heard that their laptops gt many problems.
for the asus n55sf, im wondering about the i5 and i7 processor. izzit worth to upgrade to i7 from the price of 2799 to 3699? thank you very very much

Can you share with us what are the problems that you heard of so far?

There's already a lot of HP Dv6 users now and there's no problems with it
Summore the HP Dv6 is better in terms of both price and performance if compared to the i7 variant of the N55Sf
Personally I think the i5 variant of the N55sf is better, mainly because of the HD+ matte screen

1. Preferred Brand: Any brand that is REALIABLE
2. Budget: RM2K or below
3. Usage: Surf the internet, Microsoft words & excel
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: at least 15"6 and above

Need for full keyboard (numberic keypad) thanks for advise..

beside the hd+ matte screen, do u still prefer the i5?

For me, I'd prefer i7 whenever possible. But then the price hike for the i7 N55sf is not worth it yo
Just stick to i5, gaming depends more on GPU anyway

mostly about the screen, temperature, motherboard and the most important......customer services.

Pretty much Dell Inspirons:
Dell
Inspiron 15 (N5050), B950 + Intel HD3000@RM1659
Inspiron 15 (N5050), i3-2330M + Intel HD3000@RM1739
Inspiron 15R, i3-2330M + GT525M@RM1999

Though the normal Inspiron 15 doesn't have numpad I think XD

Added on September 28, 2011, 5:48 pmi5 is dual core, i7 is quad core lo hahaha XD
i7 is better in terms of multitasking but bring about no significant performance gain in terms of gaming performance for most games.
i7 is more powerful, thus hotter... and will reduce battery life

1. Preferred Brand Asus Or Other Brand You Recommended
2. Budget 2-3k
3. Usage Engineering Program like AutoCAD
4. Preferred laptop/screen size Any

I'm a 1st year civil engineering student...
looking a laptop with stunning outlook...
i'm more to entertainment like music but not a heavy gamer at the moment...

may i ask did hp dv6 6001tx comes with beats earphone?

Guys need advice, not really on which laptop to buy but a question on whether is it better to wait nxt year or just get it now? According to my friend, prices for a 2nd gen intel i5 will drop early next year, whats your take?

Hi ho people,

it's been a while, but the time has come for me to get another laptop! for the missus that is.

need recommendation on 11.5/12" out there. saw that there's not too many choices, but it would be great to hear some thoughts from owners/sellers regarding them. max budget at rm2k, and she'll be using it mainly for spreadsheet, surfing and watching movies

Am looking at Sony vpcyb15ag. looks pretty darn nice, and she seems to like the lime green too.

however, if need be i can convince her to go for the more typical black or silver, lol.

thanks in advance!

p/s: how sleek is that timeline 3830? looks nice

Thinkpad E220 @Rm1799 would suit ur needs I guess..

Yea, external HDD can use on Mac why not?

It does, though some doesn't comes but with cheaper price...

Well, if can wait, then wait

You can look at

Btw, make sure to format the external hard disk to eXFAT instead of NTFS and FAT32.
