QUOTE(ndragon @ Nov 20 2012, 09:56 PM) Because I've been searching for Blu Ray combo and went to some Lenovo Exclusive Shops.1 in Low Yat, say got stock, when wanna pay, suddenly say out of stock. 2nd shop, say got the Win 8 version. Oklah, take it. Went there, say it's Win 7 HB. So, don't trust those bloody computer boys. all played too many games, dunno what they talking about. But overall, it a great laptop and value for money. |

QUOTE(ndragon @ Nov 20 2012, 10:08 PM) but i actually prefer the win7hb ver. I also get a P950 headset but didn't give backpack. Instead, shop say add another RM99 for the backpack from Targus. cuz can upgrade to win8 pro ma.. win8 ver about 30 bucks more expensive.. so add like 20 more can get the pro ver... nth much diff la.. but still pro better ma.. haha normal 1.. sometimes their stock probably take from other place.. den probably didnt keep track until they ask again when buyer confirms.. i bought mine after searching high n low in forum.. at last found win7hb version at a nt bad price.. comes with a backpack n p950 head set.. Then say cannot give any other more. |

QUOTE(kuroneko0509 @ Nov 20 2012, 10:30 PM) probably dicota backpack is out of stock..... True. The headset actually not comfortable and not really good quality. But still you should claim it or else the sales guy will take home, give their friends or people bodek them. relax bro.... i never get that p950 headset when i bought it eventhough it's clearly stated in the promo leaflet... eventhough if i'll get it, probably will be unused since i got my sennheiser headphone already |

I'm playing iTunes, surfing net now and McAfee security on, rainmeter on.
Only use 34% RAM. I'm 8GB seldom exceed 50% so 4 GB is good enough but 8 GB is recommended. |

QUOTE(mengfart @ Dec 3 2012, 10:12 PM) http://www.windowsupgradeoffer.com/ So, what's the outcome?Bought it at the 2nd floor (D MOBILE COMPUTER SDN BHD) Got the machine at 4th floor (PC3 Technology S/B) I've asked them to do it for me but they tried to scam me and tell me that Win7 Home basic is not eligible for the offer but I told them i've already contacted Microsoft and they clearly says that Win7 Home basic is eligible for it. Then they offered to give me a new unused genuine win8 pro upgrade. So i waiting there for hours for the upgrade and it FAILED ! They wanted me to go there again tomorrow saying that they'll format my pc then upgrade or if it still fails they will do a clean installation. will update tomorrow. |
