my advise not to buy twinhead.cause the warranty only cover u 1 year international warranty and not 3 year warranty as the sales person told u.and the dint come with optional that can upgrade warranty to 3 year.after 1 year u will know the cost for u to repair the notebook

Been using twinhead 121D for 3 1/2 years now. No problem whatsoever. last march send for repair since my laptop always shut-down after 1 minit thay charge me nothing since it still under waranty. Even after i open my notebook. Service ok. The problem lies in fan (never clean it before) and RAM (kingston) but when take out the RAM, no problem, they even screw back and oil my laptop.

Well, it all depends on luck. Nothing is 100% ok.

u mean the 15 inch model or 12 inch model?

Well, i think their limited warranty for 2 &3 years is a gimmick. They charge you for the spares and free labour. Do you believe it? They might have charge the labour into the parts already. They can state that their warranty only valid for one year only!

As oppose to Fujitsu at least they are fair they charge free for parts and charge you the labour only.

so definately i will told others twinhead only come with 1 years warranty,except for gigabyte that really come with 2 years international warranty part & labour(battery 1 year,adapter 1 1/2 year).twinhead & gigabyte is distribute by abec technology sdn. bhd.

I bought it in a shop at the IT Center at Sunway Pyramid and so happened my ex-colleague was working there. I forgot the name of the shop, but if you want, I can get the name from the receipt at home.

Too bad my friend is no more working there, if not can probably get some discount for you.

bought a twinhead 12D last week at lowyat plaza. upgrade to 1gb ram total price is RM3200 + 160 processing fee for easy payment.
although the spec is quite old, pentium m 1.75ghz but it's fast enough for on the road usage. battery life also not bad, at aprox 4hrs with wifi on.
temperature is 45celcius on idle. at 1.7 - 1.8kg, it's very light. most important for me, IT'S WHITE!

EDIT: the screen is very bright under flourescent light.

Hmmm... I'm also looking at the J13S model. It looked sleek and solid to me. The one I was looking at came with 2.0GHz processor and 2GB RAM (but no OS). You guys think this notebook is worth buying for RM3399? My iBook is in need for replacement.

What about the heat build-up problem? Hinges problem? LCD screen problem? Guys, please let me know if I should buy this? Any known problem with this model or not?

let me just say u avoid twinhead better than u avoid acer
