Hmm... Dell? Not sure if can trust anymore blush.gif . Cause I have a Dell laptop currently, it lags, overheats, fan is always running loudly shocking.gif and now it can not even start cry.gif .

Any more options? I saw one in Harvey Norman few days ago, it had the specs I wanted and touch screen as well, an Acer at 2299. dunno can trust Acer or not.

Hmm seems good, especially 1TB HDD, that'll ensure I have plenty of storage for my audio production needs as well as media consumption of videos.

But I'm still skeptical about Lenovo though, maybe in the future I might get one. All about the brand thumbup.gif .

Anyways, I found one here http://www.lelong.com.my/asus-n-series-not...4-03-Sale-P.htm an Asus. Seems like a dream deal biggrin.gif

As for storage device, don't just judge based on the capacity, but rather the speed  nod.gif
