also MYR vs USD is weak lately, definitely affect brands when they set the price. Just bad timing for Malaysian when Haswell is coming up

on G505s with A6-5350M + HD8570M
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Lenovo...ok.99459.0.html

on performance of A4-5000, maybe can look at this:
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Toshib...ok.97804.0.html

G400s, Pentium 2020 + Intel HD@RM1349, 4GB, 500GB, W8
G405s, A4-5000 + AMD HD@RM1099, 4GB, 500GB, FreeDOS
I think we can safely say the G405s will run longer than G400s, but is less powerful.

This is not a sales thread. Go ask at garage sales

Dell Online Malaysia seems to be doing a major clean up now. Lots of variation disappear (including lots of Haswell spec). 14z left with 1 option

Yes.

14R is totally refreshed with Haswell. Can remove those with Ivy Bridge.
Also there is Inspiron 11.

Not too sure I like the new naming scheme by Dell.

I already has a slight adjustment to do when I look at the Latitude.
Last time we have, eg:
E5430, E6430, E6430u
Now, it's like:
Latitude 14 3000, Latitude 14 5000, Latitude 14 7000.
And the 3000 series look really entry level (more like Vostro, I also see model name like E3440), the 5000 series (E5440 in some doc) look worse than E5430 (in my eye), and 7000 series also carry model name like E7440 I suppose if Dell feel like it they could come up with 6000 series later (E6440 perhaps, just to make it more confusing )

I supposed for Insiron, it is not getting any worse:
Last time we have:
14, 14R, 14z
It will change into something like:
Inspiron 14 3000, Inspiron 14 5000, 1nspiron 14 7000

But generally, I really prefer the "series" indicator to be in front of the size "indicator" in a model name
Guess I just have to get use to it.

It was me Could be found last month when Dell Malaysia has a "Haswell spec" page showing all the Haswell spec laptop models, now that page memang sudah hilang
Inspiron 15 is at "clearing stock" stage, Dell Malaysia Online only showing Ivy Bridge spec now

Z500 (and Z400) is just troublesome to get access to RAM slot and HDD bay. Some re-sellers don't want to bother with helping buyers do upgrade after-market

sifu, you are a pro
I'd seen a technician did it once. iirc, there were ~ 40 screws before he get to the RAM

TJ, sorry, the Inspiron 15 7000 price should be RM2899, not RM2699.

Also, Inspiron 15R all Haswell spec now: (why you removed it )

Inspiron 15R, i5-4200U + HD8670M @RM1999[2.32kg], 4GB, 750GB(5400rpm), Linux, 65WHr; W8SL@RM2199

wild guess But whenever you are totally off line for consecutive days, always seems to be travelling with gf Enjoy your trip

upload photo?

sifu, do you mean the Inspiron 14 7000 only, or applicable to the 15" and 17" as well?

5mm SATA SSD is hard to find (and expensive compared to normal 7/9 mm).
Also the mSATA slot is not easy to get to (for Inspiron 14 7000), apparently. So trying to change the mSATA SSD to higher capacity (and make it the boot + app drive) also is quite a challenge

Yup, sifu lee_what is right , (looking at all the screen shot I could find and the manual) the 15 7000 and 17 7000 are using the normal z-height HDD. But the strange thing I did not seem to find / see mSATA port for 15" and 17"
