Hi everyone. As a foreigner planning to buy the laptop for the first time in Malaysia, I appreciate your comments about 2 issues:

- Windows installation: Is the Windows software installation included in the price of the laptop ? Or I need to ask the retailer to install it for me ?

- Place to buy: I prefer to buy at the physical store, not Internet websites coz I feel it is safer and more reliable. Is it true ? But I afraid that the shop doesn't have all the models which are advertised online. And I don't want to buy at Low Yat Plaza, coz in my opinion, this place is quite messy...
*
windows installation is inlcuded with the price of the laptop. unless you buy freeDos. if you dont want lowyat plaza, doesnt matter. you can go to other places. there is some seller in garage sales have physical shop somewhere in KL, pandan indah, subang, like that.... can nego and deal online. and pay the rest at their shop after u verify everythings working perfectly.

Hi, please advise

Brand: Any
Budget: RM2.2k include windows
Usage: Microsoft office, surf net, watching movie
Preferred: 14" and above

Would be good if the laptop design look nice rather than the bulky type, white or black color, reliable warranty or should i say good after sales service. Even better if can recommend which shop to buy as i heard now that they have refurbish unit in the market and i wont be able to know whether i am buying a new or refurbish unit, dont wanna get cheated because i am half pair water about laptop.

Did some homework on this
Asus A555LJ-XX032H – 15.6 / I5-5200 / 4GB / 1TB / GT920M 2GB / W8.1
Not sure whether it is a good choice, please help.

THANKS!!!

All the while there r certified refurbished units in the market 1. Acer, dell, ASUS.. just this few months suddenly pop up from nowhere tat those unit not certified 1... ASUS most frequently met

My Fren who specialized in 2nd units told me so... he bought 50 units ASUS a series... all faulty... he send back to ASUS.. ASUS say those unit NEVER been sold thus warranty never honored... not certified refurbished units

Hp sales no.1 in 2014.. n they r bigger than ASUS + MSI combine... wat do u think... haha...

Just tat their price is more expensive considering the normal after sales quality... both dell n HP price is quite same category... but dell provide onsite service for all products n HP only a few range hv...

Asus is a big no in Malaysia. Coz their after sales is the worst... but oversea still ok
