there are a couple of security seals/stickers on the box that you might want to look ot for to check whether the box is open or closed. |

Different brand different security sticker.
By the way, I think Twinhead don't have security sticker. So, they can actually take out the faulty notebook, fix it, put it back and sell it as new. This also happens to all the cheapo brand notebook like Sotec etc. So cheap price you get cheap product. |

How about brands like Acer? To another question, i find that the prices of Acers in KLCC and the prices dealers in LY offer differ by alot, and they even offer freebies! This is quite amazing to me...Somebody told me that this is becauuse most of the dealers in LY are 'authorized dealers', and for those who sell the notebooks at full price are subsidary ones(to Acer). In such a case, which place must I consider purchasing? What is the difference? The price offered in LY is attractive, but the Acer sub in KLCC told me they offer better service... I have no idea bout this... |

Thanks, man. Tentatively, i will buy a laptop during this coming september. I hope Asus notebook didn't disappoint me. Yet, i still have a second thought of FTEC. Coz, they are quite slim and full features compare to others. Somehow, i just doubt with their services and durability since they are so value value value for money. Cheap no good, good things no cheap, rite? |

It's hard to get a laptop around RM 3K. You should budget until RM 4K if u just wan 2 perform enjoyable word processing works. At least, u don't face with hanging phobia before ur document get saved. |

Acer will have blue color sticker. Also, for Acer, their service center is called HighPoint. You just need to go back to their service center. So all the Acer product service is the same because you need to send it yourself to their service center. So they lying to you if they said they provide better service for you coz no such thing. Probably they can send it for you if you leave far away from HighPoint. |

Good to buy it in PC Fair coz can see all the notebook and compare all at the same place.
ATI better. Dothan better. Notebook you want is: a)Acer 2012WLCi b)Dell 8600 c)Acer 8003LCi No other brand offer the thing you want at reasonable price. BlueDot have Ati 9700 64MB but I dun believe them. Hehehe |

Thanks for your advice Will Dothan be very different in terms of performance and other things from the normal one? But they said that the Dell's speaker is nor very good. Unlike Toshiba and HP rite? Another things is tat will tat be a big different between graphic card with 64MB and 128MB? How about in terms of gaming? Will it be ok with 64MB? adequate enuf? Really bad tat Toshiba doesnt have 128 ATi. Dell good enuf? how about these? 128MB ATI Mobility Radeon 9600 Pro (DELL 8600) 64MB ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 64MB Nvidia GeForce FX Go5200 (TOSHIBA M30) |

yeap, dothan
but gaming performance--- nothing much to expect. u need a good graphics card for tht. and plz remember that centrino is not a processor, its a technology combination(two of the pros-means more usage hours n intergrated wifi). u hav to chosse beetween dothan N banias, although some brands still don't hav the former. i think dell has it in their 600m series. good luck.
