Actually his English is not bad la
Just that you know la, when we directly translate from Chinese, it may sound offensive, and some people will think that he is rude when he is not haha

im 1/2 towards this point.
through non-verbal conversation, its hard to judge the politeness and rudeness. for example, when we write an essay, people will think of us annoying and if we write something short, people will think that we are rude.

haiz, nothing can be done because this is the world.

Which is why its important to learn how to type politely lo haha
No shortcuts unfortunately.. it really helps to learn~ I've managed to get along with VIPs in the field just by being polite

Sorry for off topic haha~


*Anyways, I wonder why we haven't really see any successful notebook that can be attached to a dock that will turn it into a performance machine? Sure nice to have the best of both worlds

where to buy dell laptop ?

i have thought about this concept a very long time, like how Lenovo Y510P's ultrabay does but this concept's impression may made someone laugh.

lets say the main unit is the tablet itself, with an ULV processor, decent amount of RAM and massive mSATA SSD storage inside. when we want performance for gaming, just simply dock in the tablet to the keyboard, which has a quad core CPU and a beasty GPU in the keyboard. no mSATA slot or RAM slot are present in the keyboard dock, as it will rip off the cooling parts.

just my future concept impression, you may laugh if you wanted to.

EDIT : aiks, back to topic. i smell warnhammer.

As raymond sifu recommended, try bro Oscar


Yeah, and it might just work, I fully support you haha, faster design one, I'll be your first buyer haha

Make it a 14 or 15.6" tablet God it will be a spectacular machine!!

1. Preferred Brand: Any (reliable, asus will be out from review here)
2. Budget : RM2k
3. Usage: microsoft office , some gaming(dota2, L4D2, hope can play) video/photo editing, surf and online movie.
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: 14 or bigger

Reading from page 1 till end, looks like flex 14 (GT 720M card)and V5-473PG recommeded alot for low budget below 2.3k and looks good for me ?? between Lenovo and Acer which will u bro choose?? I was looking at E1-472G. Does it come with Dos only?? Not a fan if W8. And also lower end of Flex 14 (GT820M card) RSP 1799 at Lenovo Web'

Its good to know that you have already did some research before asking

Oh, we only recommend the Flex 14 if your budget is from RM1.7-2.3k AND you don't really play games haha.. since you do game, please consider these instead:
14"
Dell Inspiron 14R, i5-4200U + Nvidia GT740M@RM1849 [2.32kg], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), Linux, 6 cell; W8@RM2049

HP Pavilion 14-N059TX, i5-4200U + Nvidia GT740M@RM2099[2.03kg], 4GB, 750GB, W8; colors: silver/black

*Prices in RRp ya

THe graphic cards in these are much better than the GT720M
Just pick the one you like more, since both are pretty equally spec-ed. If you are going for the Dell, it might be better to fork out a little bit more for the warranty ya

Try to upgrade to at least 8GB RAM, it will help with your editing and multi-tasking You can choose to upgrade later on when you have the budget

1. Preferred Brand: Any
2. Budget : if possible under rm1.5k (DOS only)
3. Usage: I don't play games . browse ,movies and office work only .
4. Preferred laptop/screen size : 13-14 portable and lightweight preferred . but i need a faster processor than the atom netbook that I bought previously disappoint me .

13" notebooks are generally more expensive unfortunately
Can consider these:
14"
Dell
Inspiron 14-3437, i3-4010U + Intel HD4400@RM1399[1.99kg], Ubuntu, 4GB, 750GB(5400rpm), 4-cell; W8SL@RM1549

Lenovo

Depending on how adventurous you are, you can actually get one of the cheapest ones, then throw in an SSD, that way you will get a much faster computing experience (even more than the expensive ones )
