Hey, nubie here...

I'm looking for laptop for my bro...

Budget -> RM2000 - 2500
Preferably light weight
Tech spec is not much of concern, won't be using it for heavy applications...

I know it's very hard to get a nice light and good laptop within that price range...

I did some browsing and came up with Acer Aspire 4710/20 and Dell Inspiron 1420, how you guys rate those two? Any recommendation from you guys are much apperciated...

Thanks....

I've been hearing lotsss of negative comment about Acer, but still they are doing pretty well in the market... I've never use one before, so I can't really judge... Their prices are so attractive!!!

Anyway, any nice Compaq in the region of RM2500?? And I saw Lenovo IdeaPad the other day, how is that line? I know it's the lower end coming from Lenovo, but is it good still??

Thanks....

RM2999


The specs are good and it's a tablet PC... My only concern is just the AMD processor... Is it ok? Cause last time AMD is famous for being overheated easily....

And I don't know if I remember correctly, but i think someone at lowyatt offered me tx2032 for RM3100... But again, I could be very very wrong, cause the retail price is RM3999 That shop didn't have any brochure and I forgot the name

Where do you get it??? I'm planning to get a tx1316 for RM2999, but if tx2032 for only 2977

Btw, I've been offered the same one with urs in lowyat ground floor, a booth somewhere near the NVIdia booth (NVIDIa is in the centre)... It's called T-57 i think, for TM3099

Please let me know where do you get that, cause I plan to get two laptops this Friday
