Whether a notebook lasts or not depends on luck and how well you take care of it nod.gif

Can consider these:
13"
Asus
TP300LA-DW100H, i3-4010U + Intel HD4400 + (1366x768; touch)@RM1599[1.75kg], 4GB, 500GB, W8.1

14"
Asus K451LN-WX046H, i5-4200U + Nvidia 840M@RM2199[2.1kg], 4GB, 1TB, W8.1

Lenovo Ideapad Flex 2-14, i3-4030U + Intel HD4400 +(1366x768; touch) + 8GB SSHD + 500GB HDD@RM1699[2kg], 4GB, W8, 2 yrs; color: black

These are all entry-level machines, so try not to expect too much in terms of quality and reliability nod.gif reliable business machines are mostly RM3-4k or more
*Prices in RRP
Upgrade to 8GB RAM if you multitask alot icon_rolleyes.gif

The Asus one seems promising, will try to nego as low as possible as I still need budget for my Surface laugh.gif

Asus is for my mom, according to her request, just some lightweight long battery life device. Anyway any retailers around Subang/PJ for it? Or must I go to LYP for more options?
