Beware, ConquerorX. Since you're going to fork out a few thousand bucks, why don't spend a little bit more to get a better one? Why Twinhead?

The Twinhead's spillproof k/board and military grade is bulls***.

I'm working part time in a notebook retail company, we tried to drop the Twinhead from 1m, while playing DVD. the result at first was "WOW!!!, Amazing!".

It's really cool to see a notebook dropped down unscratched while playing DVD but, the second time was pathetic. The LCD lid cover broke. We sent back for 1 to 1 swap.

And we don't dare to try spilling water to the keayboards.

Try Acer or Compaq instead since the price range is there.

Yup!
you're correct..

But the most my budget is about 4K+ little bit only..

I've done some research and most of the 4K budget laptop :

Acer : Good, nice feature.. but lack of Combo Drive and Infra Red. Weight is > 3KG. But eyeing for the Centrino Model. Nice and Slim as well as < 3KG.
Dell : Reasonable price, Good.. but lack of Combo Drive and Infra Red. Weight is > 3KG
Compaq : Reasonable price, got infra red port but using Desktop Processor. no point getting it!. > 3KG
TwinHead :
Design darn dull!..Reasonable price, got infra red port, using Mobile Processor. about 2.6KG (I do travel a lot sometimes )

I have seen Aris model as well as other ciplak brand.. but i guess of all these, TwinHead should be the best choice for my budget..

Hi ConquerorX,

Here's my recommendations for you:
1) Compaq 2164AF (P4 M, Combo, WiFi)
2) Acer 290XCi (Centrino, Combo)

Yup!

eyeing for the Centrino Model.. Acer 290 Model..but currently Low Yatt selling it for RM4.5K+ .. So hope on PC Fair, the price will drop.. but i do not know how much it will drop..

As of Compaq.. i went to Sungai Wang last week ago.. i guess the model is somewhere around 5k?
Not sure the price though..
