i would recommen to buy there.. i heard some oversea laptop hav climate control.. like they specially built the laptop accordin to the local temperature n vapour density.. heard from my uncle, his laptop which bought overseas has tis kind of proctection. lets say when he walks in snow taking wif his laptop, then wanna use it in the house, he would hav to wait untill the notebook temperature warm to idle temperature or else it wouldn't switch on.
it's to prevent the vapour in the air condense n cause short circuit to the electronic board. juz hearsay.. but x noe whether true a not.. anyway, it's a nice protection feature.
