The current all 6400 models will support 667MHz rams. Only in the past the 6000 model supports up to 533MHz only.

I am using 1280x800 truelife only. I think tis resolution is prefect!  laugh.gif

If you go for higher resolutions, your desktop and all will look really really small. You wont be used to it.

These resolutions are best for graphic designers.

hmm... hmm.gif really???
the one on promotion in PC fair is just T5500 only wo...
which means 533mhz...not meh???

Hi,

I've ordered my Inspiron which is really cheap this week. Waiting for the delivery now and I will join this big lovely family.

Here are the specs :

Intel core 2 duo T5300 1.73GHz
2GB ram
Truelife
120GB HDD
DVD burner
ATI x1400 256mb
3 years complete cover

All for the price of RM3831.
Very satisfied with the price n specs. smile.gif
*
I thinking of ordering this one as well...
exactly the same specs but only 2GB ram...
though the RM417 offer to upgrade to truelife and 2GB Ram seem attractive...
it's over my budget cry.gif
any freebies ar besides the bag?

mine about the same spec but i got 2gb ram...and prifce around rm3400+...but only one year cc warrabty...i think i'll try to do the warranty extension (for normal warranty only lah) for another 2 years ASAP....if the amount to pay is not that high.

normally how much for a 3 year warranty (inc. of only one year complete cover) ? ...expensive or not? coz they didnt really promo this that day...
*
at 1st I was struggling whether to take the 3 year complete cover or
the 2GB RAM + Truelife promotion...both bt same price...
but can't take both or else it'll exceed my budget since I set mine at RM3500...
so in the end go for 3 years (since this lappy gonna follow me for at least 4 years)..
and truelife (89 only) for a nicer screen...
the RAM i thinking can upgrade next time so not much of an issue...
though advisable to run Vista with 2 GB RAM though...

Shortleg bro, the reference number is on top of ur blue color resit (XX XXXX), mine is (IE 0940), just tell them the ref num and also the person in charge, ask for her direct extension, then call her, if still canot reach her, ask for her email then shoot her an email....
*
call which number ar? 1-800-880-553? then select which option?
