you are very lucky lah... i bought my 1st laptop, asus A1000B model consider the 1st generation asus laptop models in 2001... totally disaster! promised myself no more asus laptop for me

then which model of ASUS laptop do you recommend?

i used and still using an ASUS laptop, old laptop, bout 5yrs. battery dead for a few years, cooling fan not working properly for a few years, the "switch" to open the laptop screen the the switch to turn on the laptop are broken recently. other than that, it still works ok...

I'm a newbie on buying laptop, need some help from all the bro. My budget is from RM2,000 - RM1,900, my purpose for purchasing this laptop is for my online distance learning with OUM and surely will need speed and quality connection to internet. I saw most of the bro here are saying that acer sucks and toshiba or hp are a quality product, ist true? Anyone saw the CELCOM promotion that give out HP laptop with 3G data card and unlimited acess within 2 years only RM190 one month? Ist that's a worth to buy? Please give me a hint, thanks to all the bro!

i'm not sure with that promotion, can u specific which the laptop specs?

u mean compaq presario v5209 model?

yup please post more info on that promotion here so that everyone can advise later

if budget around rm 2000- rm 2500 ...which spec can i get?

Hi Judge-the. Actually i also like to know more about this offer. The info can be obtained at this site http://www.celcom.com.my/cep/productservic...m/HPCelcom.html

The question i would like to ask is: can we use to download stuff from the internet. The reason y i ask is that under the 3G service, i think it is stated there may be charges for downloading. Which i find very vague. Will some1 enlighten me on this?

perhaps you can just call the toll free 1-800 no and double check with them on the download charges

I prefer to hear from any current user. We need to know also the quality/speed/stability of the connection if possible. I guess i cant get the info from 1-800 line

sorry bro i cant afford 3G so never use 3G services before. only 24/7 on tmnut screamyx

hey everyone, hope you guys can help me out to pinch down some top few list of laptops.

budget: RM3500-RM4200
requirement: can play games such as half life, fear

going to use for campus life. U noe, student life...

currently, i looking into Inspiron 6400. And just released, Inspiron 1501 (powered by AMD processor).

About Inspiron 1501, is AMD processor able to last long and take the heat, compare to Intel?

how much 3G services monthly? i saw at HWM Nov, review about 3G PCcard , it perform over 1MB ++ ler

guys, what do you think about this NEC laptop. Good for budget between RM4500-RM5000. I personally think that this laptop is one of the best of the cheapest for it's spec in it.

NEC is not bad but u should also find the thinkpad at it website too, coz more cheaper with nice spec too. notebookshop mr mah can offer u with a good price.

Mr.Mah can roughly offer how much cheaper for this NEC?
Besides, i've no contact with Mr.Mah.

but thinkpad doesnt have the same processor as the NEC which is "Intel(R) Core(tm) 2 Duo T7200 2GHz, 4MB cache, 667MHz,"

And i think the processor itself compare to thinkpad, this is the best price. Besides, the most expensive thinkpad laptop 'ThinkPad X60 17024EA' in notebookshop still cant match the spec of the NEC 'NEC Versa P8210 2003DR'

Take a look below.
