few questions here, need recommendations and suggestions:
1.normally do you all make partition for the hdd? if yes, 120g need to make how many partition and what is the size for each? 2.the vista premium disk provided can use to make partition like xp rite? or use partition magic better? 3.what is other antivirus that you all use other than the one provided? 4.Can use office 2003 with vista premium rite? that's all for now i think... thanks |

yup its sharp, the estimated time maybe earlier, no prob, they will call up to confirm a date once ur system is ready to be shipped
if anything goes wrong call the order servicing dept.. screw the hell outta them and they will sent it asap, last time i call it and they send it by that day also |
