considering ASUS's aggressive pricing here, i'm guessing it'll be about RM5000 when it launches for a medium configuration....
went through all the press again, u're right, thanks for the correction smile.gif
hopefully it'll comparatively thin and light compared to the competition
lately i hav found that thin gadgets are more easy to store than a bulky one, considering they hav the same volume

They have to put a good price to compete though.
Especially competing against the Sony Vaio S15.

The pre-configured Vaio S15 with i5-3210M, FullHD IPS, GT640M LE 1GB, 640GB HDD, 6GB RAM, W7HP, weight around 2.0kg cost about USD899.99(roughly RM2,835).
While the one with i7-3612QM, FullHD IPS, GT640M LE 2GB, 750GB HDD, 8GB RAM, W7Pro, weight around 2.0kg cost about USD1,249.99(roughly RM3,937).
Get your own M4 512GB SSD for RM12xx, and you're done.
That is without the discounts and rebate yet.

Hopefully this Asus doesn't have the orangegate issues like some of the fullHD 15" IPS out there(vaio s15 is one of them with the issue).

Edit : Also noticed that if you customize it to i7-3612QM, FullHD IPS, GT640M LE 2GB, DVD Drive(instead of Blu-ray), 500GB HDD, 4GB RAM, W7HP cost about USD1029,99(RM3,241).

Asus's laptops are generally fair in terms of price, I'm guessing it'll be around RM4-5k too~
I just hope we don't get the lousiest configurations here tongue.gif

Dell XPS 15 is not coming afaik... so it'll still be considered as special... at least until other manufacturers decide to step up their game nod.gif
