Acer product range has moved up a slight notch over the past 1-2 years in terms of look and feel (the S series is a looker, eg). And lately the complaint on Acer warranty service has tapered down (could be Highpoint is doing a better job, or less people are buying Acer )
As usual, it's always better to go out and decide for yourself

Thanks, will try out both before deciding

Asus X201E DOS / 2GB - RM 830
Acer V5-131 W8 / 4GB - RM 950

no brainer really on spec alone

1. Preferred Brand - Asus, Lenovo
2. Budget - RM2000 - RM2500
3. Usage - Browsing, Mild-gaming (Dota 2, FM, PES etc), Normal daily usage
4. Preferred laptop/screen size - 14" +

I would prefer i7 processor and lightweight, any suggestions?

1. Preferred Brand - Toshiba or other brands
2. Budget - RM5,000 or more
3. Usage - image rendering, GIS software
4. Preferred laptop/screen size - 13" or 14"
5. What i had in mind is this model:

Portégé R930-2032, i7-3520M + Intel HD4000@RM4999, 4GB, 640GB, W7P/W8P,3 years NBD

but i would like other options available in the market. must not be bulky and prefer lightest if possible. tq
