Dear all,
Helping a female friend out, she's leaving for college in about 1.5months time. 1. Preferred Brand - None in particular cuz she didn't specify 2. Budget - (2000±200)MYR 3. Usage - For Uni student, plays indie(non-heavy) games, internet, word editing, movies 4. Preferred laptop/screen size - Not too big/heavy, 15" or smaller should suffice Thanks in advance!!  |

QUOTE(nexus2238 @ Jul 18 2013, 02:01 PM) Come and ask again in 1 month time. Haswell is coming to town, and spec is expected to be refreshed soon Thanks for the speedy reply, Nexus! If she like "not too heavy", stay with 14" for her budget (unless she really need the dedicated numpad found in 15" for her study)  K let's say she wants to buy a 14" lappy right away instead of one month later, which ones would you recommend right now? I don't think she minds about the slightly smaller screen size, but I'll ask her later. |
