RM2.3k??? ohmy.gif u sure it's so expensive to extend the warranty?? coz last time my sis's 6400 HDD spoiled also she pay around RM584 only to extend another 1 year limited warranty even though her warranty has ended around 1 month before this happen.

i've asked Dell about the recertification fees before and it usually cost around RM100plus only. but i tink there's a limited time period for u to extend ur warranty after ur warranty has ended. mine has ended since late April.  blush.gif  smile.gif

bro.. maybe it's because your sister problem was only the HDD.. that's why it cost only RM584 to extend another one year limited warranty... If you are free.. can help to check out what's the price for the extended one year warranty if the motherboard and processor spoiled? Let see if it's still RM584... very curious.. if it's still the same price.. i gonna flame that dell guy who quoted me that price! mad.gif

I am still waiting for my 9400.. hopefully within this one or two days.. leaving to Kuching next week... any nice place to go and see? On a working trip though.. will be staying hopefully at somerset hotel.. anyone live in kuching? Any good place to go?? biggrin.gif

he quoted my sis RM580 for the HDD and loose hinge & RM584 for extending the 1 year limited warranty. extra 4 bucks for 1 year limited warranty plus replace the parts is worth it rite? but need to include a RM120+ of recertification fees. that's what i know. coz i'm the one who made the call and received an email with the quotation soon after that. u can try to ask Dell again. but since you're getting 9400 edy..no point. just be happy with ur new lappy. smile.gif

anyone selling off their 6400 to get the 1520?? tongue.gif

I think it is quite worth. Replace harddisk and extend warranty just 4 bucks different although it is limited warranty. But if your sister handle the laptop very carefully one, just buy a new harddisk and replace herself will cheaper a lot. 160GB drool.gif

I'm thinking to sell off my 6400 and get 1520 but just extend my warranty to 3 years complete cover, so I think I gonna bear with it sweat.gif

Agreed. Laptop, no matter what, is juz for its portability. If it can play games, already a bonus! (IMO)

Although I am tempted at the 1520 with its nice GPU, I've learnt to close one eye, and just bear with it. It's a fact of life.

Although, I don't really like the new design, except the colour lid though. It looks cheap, especially around the sides of the keyboard, like how ours have the white strip. Just my opinion.

yup. extra 4 bucks is really worth it. u know sometimes girls dun really know how to take care of these electronic stuffs. so should get 3 yrs CC at first actually. tongue.gif

yea. really tempted by the GC. really gonna make hell lots of difference compared to my GMA950. u guys with X1400 should be ok with it right? at least still can play Battlefield 2142. biggrin.gif

the design of 1520 is more sleek & has vibrant colors compared to the now dull-looking 6400. the colour lid is the major nice part. drool.gif rclxms.gif

last time when bought 6400 got Core Duo felt so proud edy..some friends still using normal Centrino & AMD. now... cry.gif cry.gif but just have to close one eye. this is what we called technology. new ones will be coming out to replace the old ones. smile.gif

Bad news..... I just receive the email from dell...... This is the reply :

" had check with the system.


The maximum upgrade for your machine is NJ887 - 256MB NVidia (G72) for I6400 with Hypermemory.



Thank you and have a pleasant day...

Best regards,
Cliff Chang "
