Hi, I am looking for a laptop for home use. Basically just do some internet browsing and photo edit and design work. Not going for MAC due to the pricing.
Budget below RM3k. Did HP and Acer after sales support is good? IBM laptop still the best laptop ever? (I am kinda outdated about what's new in the market and etc) Thanks. |

(I am kinda outdated about what's new in the market and etc) Thanks. yeah.. acer so far.. x much complain compare to asus.. can consider acer V3-572PG-94RD, i7-4510U + Nvidia 840M + (1366x768; touch)@RM2899, 8GB, 1TB, W8.1 IBM i think no more.. IBM sold their PC division to Lenovo in 2004. Under the sale agreement, Lenovo was allowed to use the IBM brand on the Thinkpad laptops for up to 5 years after the sale, but IBM had no part in the manufacturing or marketing of them. IBM now.. towards military era gua.. haha.. satelite notebook.. or phone.. maybe.. xnoe can consider this Lenovo Flex 2-15, i7-4510U + Nvidia 840M + (1920x1080 IPS; touch)+ 8GB SSGD + 500GB HDD@RM2799[2.3kg], 4GB, W8 |

HPs pretty good from my experience and now with the promo they come with 3 years NBD warranty which is pretty good.Budget below RM3k. Did HP and Acer after sales support is good?

IBM Thinkpad still exist in the form of Lenovo Thinkpads and their engineers are with Lenovo now mainly. IBM is more of a service provider than a manufacturer now. |
