penang...

hi where is the best place to get Asus G53sx? i checked with Asus retailer said have to wait 2 to 4 weeks

if local store kenot.. maybe try online??? illegear.com.. xoticpc.com... gentechpc.com

international warranty, so need worry if buy from outside msia

hoho, order from the states? take even longer. Find a local dealer is better. Where are you? JB? KL? Penang?
