Hi, need suggestions 2 buy a new laptop. last time used ASUS notebook which is now about 5 years old, got A LOT of problem with it, like battery spoiled, easily overheat, screen opener broken, power switch broken n so on...

1) budget: below RM2500

2) specifications: Intel Core 2 Duo(preferably AMD), 512Mb RAM,  80GB hardisk...

3) Mostly going to use it in campus since i'm still a student.

4) Use it for typing, programming, watching movies, surfing internet...

please recommend some laptops, hopefully can get student price.

Thanks....

What about small laptops? I'm looking at buying a small laptop to replace my 2nd hand Dell Latitude LS. I was stupid when I bought this in 2005. Really blind buying. It looks really nice but it only has 5Gb HDD. Can't do much with it. And already sent to service twice some more...and now can't even switch on sometimes.

So any recomm. for small laptops?

Erm, does anyone here knows about 0% installment plan? What it is? I heard there's no any hidden fees (is it true?). I have read about maybank credit card installment fee ( downpayment at least RM1000, the payment period is 6-12 months ). Huh..need more info on this as I think it is better to pay monyhly (of cos if there isn't any interest n extra fees ) rather than pay one whole sum. What do u all think?  hmm.gif
*
if lets say c.card installment .. normally is 0% interest after u swap the card ..
but b4 u swap it ... it comes with handling fees normally is around 5-6%
but is still worth lar ..
depends lar ..
every company also got different way 1 .. ^ ^
