hi,
I'm gonna need a laptop in two months time.Been doing some scouting lately..
the specs I wanted is :

RM5k
2GB RAM
GPU (not integrated and hopefully a standalone, turbocache is also ok)
Vista Premium
stable
2-3years warranty
n the usual std specs(bluetooth, PMCIA slot, wifi,webcam,etc)
weight matters least.

Dell offers cheap laptop but quality is a bit..sceptical..my fren's dell 640m suffers from bad sector at the LCD screen just after a yr, ngam ngam finish warranty..

I'm looking at Toshiba and Asus, Acer seems to be ok too..

I would be grateful for any recommendations and opnions..

TQ arigato..

maybe at ur busget ..
u can try the acer gemstone ..
i think the built quality is more better than the low end model lar .. ^ ^

Here's a bit of questions from me, hopefully you guys can help me out as I need a laptop for my brother who's going overseas soon (N.Zealand). I want to get him a laptop that can support good gaming, and allows him to work / study.

Budget: 3k to a maxed of 4k. Not sure whether I can make it cash or not, but I do have credit cards to cover up if necessary.

Brands: Prefer brands like Asus. Not sure what other good brands that I should look at, but I hope to get one that could get good tech support in NZ (international coverage?). OR some laptop that you guys can assure that it won't easily die out on itself?

Specs: Nothing in mind yet, just the usual goodies (wireless, graphic card, big HD, etc).

---

I'm not stubborn in getting one particular laptop, so guys, please give me some ideas of laptops that met my requirements? Thank you.

how bout benq S41 ?
i think this model is kinda nice n suits u .. isn't it ?

You should realise benQ does not have a laptop service center in the whole of NZ.

On the other hand, As much as I hate Acer, the Gemstone does change my view of the typical acer. That new gemstone with a much powerful 8600M GT is just Rm500 plus and Acer's exposure to the world market is way better than that of the benQ
*
is it , it does has a service centre over nz there ..
but they are not selling joybook over there ..
so they din put a service note on the joybook ..
but they does cover warranty over there ...
this is wht i hear from benq ..
correct me if i am wrong .. ^ ^

QUOTE(Eiraku @ Jun 2 2007, 01:21 AM)
Like tplcaik said, from specs... The 5920 has better graphics (even though underclocked, still quite faster then the S41), but nobody knows if the thermal management (the vents and fans) are better then in current Acers... Plus there's the issue with the build quality, nobody knows how well it's built yet...

The S41 should have good thermal management (like the previous model), and a faster processor, but the GPU is a bit crappier then the Gemstone...

So, your call... Both are not really out yet so nobody really knows which one is better... icon_rolleyes.gif
*
yeah u r rite ... ^ ^
but depends on wht is ur usage lar ...
want light n ez .. take the benq ..
if performance .. maybe acer ... haha
