I "fixed" all Asus laptop prices according to their price catalog  nod.gif
The price tags are either Rm100 cheaper or RM100 dearer, so I just make it more consistent by just following the price catalogs laugh.gif

This year seem like HP very quite with their high end notebooks.. hmm.gif

hi guys, im planning on buying a new laptop as my 10+ years old laptop is in coma. ( hardware problem )

Preferred Brand: I really dont mind, but the brand must have a good customer service. However,brands like Dell, Sony , HP, Acer and Lenovo are my priorities.

Budget: Below RM 2000. I'm still uni student..not the right time to use high-end gadgets..

Usage: Some light gaming, such as CS 1.6 , The Sims 3..

Screen size: 14" or 15"

I also a 'download' head. smile.gif so laptop with higher HDD capacity is my priority.
*
With such budget 500GB max u can go.. hmm.gif

Try ultrabooks as they lightweight suitable for student to carry here n there. nod.gif
HP
[Ultrabook] Envy 4-1009TU, i3-2367M + Intel HD3000@RM1999, 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), W7HP
[Ultrabook] Envy 4-1019TU, i3-2367M + Intel HD3000 + [32GB mSATA + 500GB(5400rpm)]@RM2199, 4GB, W7HP
[Ultrabook] Envy 4-Sleekbook 4-1034TU, i3-2377M + Intel HD3000@RM1999, 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), W7HP

btw, ultrabook HDD are upgradeable? hmm.gif

Other than that can consider:

Acer V3-471G-53212G50k/g/s, i5-3210M + Nvidia GT630M@RM1999[2.3kg], 2GB, 500GB black,gold,silver, Olympic, 3 years warranty
