It's an Inspiron 6400 replacement model, confirm released in Malaysia (the Dell factory is over here, isn't it?)... The only caveat is when...

But IMHO, the best thing about Dells is it's warranty... If you KNOW you can take care of your computers during and after the end of the warranty period (2 years for Asus), take the G1S... It's got superior build quality...

Dell factory is in Malaysia and yet they don't release all their models here.. shouldn't we be the first to get the new models since they're being manufactured here?

Anyway, yep. Warranties are not really a big concern for me. 2 years warranty is more than enough  although if Dell's new inspiron > G1s then I might consider it. However the current Dell inspirons are just.. not very inspiring
G2s has 17" screen - looks yummy. But what's the current price difference between G1s and G2s? I can push my budget - but then I'll have to save an extra month's salary before buying it

Right now quite keen on the G1s.

You're absolutely right The laptop I'm getting WILL be sitting on a desk most of the time - but there are times when I need to carry it with me for work/LAN party/out-of-town purposes.

I haven't yet seen many people owning a G2s so I'm not too sure about it. I also can't seem to find a price list for the G2s? And how is the graphics quality? Some say it is slightly lower than the G1s (Nvidia Geforce vs ATI Radeon?) but if there isn't much of a difference then perhaps.

ah its ok, so is G1s also has 8600M GT too? If that's the case, like i said, it is between weight and screen.

I own something else. Its on my siggy. Much much more sweeter than G1s/G2s if u asked me. However, like i said, Asus impressed me. I might go for Asus for my next mobile system (that would be like 3-4 years from now).

John Jay, reserve a G10s for me in 4 years to come .

lol yeah. That one costs alot ! The 19" could reach like RM12,000++. It's the ALX. That one is unnecessary bcoz the extra thousand dollars u pay is actually for the first-class support and services plus the accessories that they throw-in with the ALX. That is absolutely unnecessary if u asked me.

yup RM7251 is not that bad isnt?, especially for an SLi notebook. That one is for the much humbler m9700. (I checked dictionary and there is a word "humbler"..)

haha yeah at first i made that up.. then i was like, hmm is there such word? humbler? then when i found it i was like, "I was luckily correct"

yup good to know some of u gamers getting Asus as ur system. Do post some reviews and benchies by the time u got it. Let us know ur choice too.

just make it quick. will be there any santa rosa with budget Rm3k?

Hi,
I'm new here..

Looking for some opinions 
- purpose: demanding programming, graphics (photoshop, etc) and occasional game (GMA shld do, GF8400 better)

- weight < 2.5kg
- screen 14" and below, default with the weight I suppose?
- 1Gb RAM, 2GB preferred
- 3 yrs warranty
- santa rosa preferred
- budget 5K preferred, can be higher

I searched, possible options are below, what do u think?
Any1 can give me the current prices or other suggestion??  
- Dell XPS M1210
- Compaq V3505-09TU
- BenQ S41
- HP dv2523TX, dv2505TX
- Asus A8Sc

Maybe:
- Vaio SZ (too expensive)

Tomolo will go my fren shop at Imbi. Wan to see HP D2314TX i think. Rm3999 he offered me. What do u think bout this model? I think 14.1 with C2D T5600, 1GB DDR2 and Geforce 7200. A bargain right?

Wow it looks damn good 

Any idea how much is it? Is it within the budget i mentioned? I doubt so 

Mr John, can recommend for my case ? 

Thanks Eiraku, John.
- G1s is too heavy, for a girl
- Thinkpad R61, dont like the look & need to up RAM+HD, will be expensive?

Narrow down to these

Price??? RM4499

That's what boyfriends are for 

I myself am planning to get a G1s or G2s (hopefully a G2s lol). Although if I wanted a 14" screen I would've gone for the Benq S41. Have heard alot of good reviews about it - but 14" is just not as fun as a 17"

The Acer Gemstone aka Aspire 5920G caught my eye as well but more people seem to vote for the ASUS G1s in terms of laptop quality.

acer maa... no surprise there... but acer travelmate is very good built quality. Still, normal wear n tear in unavoidable. Dell also same wat...

HP Pavilion dv6508, ok tak?

and its so RM200 cheaper than the DV6203tx last time... 6203 only got 1GB RAM and 7400GC... 6580gpt 2GB and 8400GC...
waiting for another better lappie with cheap price..
the acer aspire5920G pun not bad and cheaper too!
but i dun like acer~
not branded pun =='

i plan to buy notebook.. is this hp branded notebook good?

coz got ppl said hp notebook beautiful outside but cheap thing inside =D..

i plan to buy hp compaq presario v3514 ( intel core2 1.8 with 1gb ram at rm3546).. is this price good? bundled with vista basic yup..

ps: oh ya.. can I upgrade some of the hardware inside in the future?

Bought liau at Just PC at Imbi. DV2314TX. Rm3880 with HP bag and free one more small bag. Nice! Btw, it's strange that Geforce 7200 score lower than GMA950? Geforce graphic only score 2.7 while GMA 950 score 3.1 leh..Wonder why??

I just got to know that my fren is a manager there. Not the owner of the shop. Haha. He is the top seller there who sell about 1500 unit of notebook each month doing exporting. Fuh...

Played with Gemstone today at his shop. Only arrive today afternoon according to him. Wow, i must say i am impress with the Vista score. 4.7 for a notebook that only cost Rm4499. (after discount can get Rm4299). The graphic performace score an impressive 5.2! This acer is a bargain running Santa Rosa with Geforce 8600 with directx 10. Then summore subwoofer lagi. Impressive performance with super cheap value!

Ah Ngai. U know?

I seriously need recommendation from u guys

beside benq S41 got what else good one??

budget preferably less than 4k

screen at least 14" and not acer or dell

pls give me at least 3 choices to choose from besides S41

thx guys(for seller,pm me pls)

ty

Hi boss, just got the Compaq 3252 from you 

Yeap i know him also. I only recognized him as Desmond not ah ngai. 
He is still there? I almost forget about him also. Last time i meet him or i think last year at IMBI.

Waah,  i thought i can easily decide what laptop to buy. After brwosing through this forum, now i am more confused.

Was considering Lenovo T61, i discovered the battery is protruding at the back !...cancelled

Then ASUS A8jr...no finger print...worry about someone sneeking into my XXX files :-).....also cancelled.

Then Macbook Pro.....too precious for my "outdoor" use
Then Sony Sz....too fragile , an issue of build quality as many say.
OKAY NOW...i'm considering Satelite M200 E412  or M100-2111E.

Pls advise me which one between the two. Assuming i upgrade both unit with 2 GB RAM , Which one offer the best PERFORMANCE ?

Which of the 2 units offer better upgradability for Graphics and Processing Power .

Design wise, which looks better ?

Btw, it is difficult to have reviews on both of these models. Hope forumers can give feedbacks on the model mentioned ?

Thanks guys. If nothing negative, i will shoot to Lowyatt and get one.

JOHN !, any good price and offering for this model or not ?

Regards.

Anyway John, where in Lowyat your outlet lar ?

where i can get a used/second hand notebook?

maybe that time we are still together cracking our brain in the exam. When you left . i think he join there on late 2005
It seem so close can call ah ngai. I never call him that oh
