Hi Gurus

Need some recommendation for notebooks/laptops

1. Preferred Brand: Anything but Apple. Anything means reliable in terms of Support & Service as well as product.
2. Budget: 3k
3. Usage: Business with lots of application testing and productivity tools running - I need CPU speed.
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: min 14"

Thanks y'all

Best Support and service after sales

might want to consider Lenovo Y410p, i7-4700MQ + Nvidia GT755M(GDDR5)@RM2899, 4GB, 1TB, DOS, red backlit, 120w psu, swappable ODD, 2 years warranty

Thank you Pandera999. Yes no Apple - I need another lifetime to get familiar with it...(LOL! It's a joke)

Are you saying Dell comes with best support & Service after sales?

Are these 2 options RAM can be expandable....up to.....?

Can consider this one brows.gif
14" Dell Inspiron 14 7000, i5-4200U + Intel HD4400 + 32GB mSATA + 500GB(5400rpm)@RM2699[2.02kg], 6GB(soldered), , W8SL, backlit keyboard, 58Whr, No ODD

*price in RRP, negotiable
*the mSATA SSD will give you a much smoother computing experience than just having a lot of CPU performance
*use remaining budget for warranty extension to 3 years

Based on PF T.J's recommendation, I checked the specs on the website. But no LAN port, VGA (still need this as some projectors do not support HDMI), no RAM extension bay in case for an upgrade,

Any other recommendations? No HP - always bad experience with its hardware.

Hi PF T.J

Thanks. I initially thought that new hardwares would still come with the LAN n VGA port by default. Will check out the Lenovo then. Thanks again bro.
