The laptop drop little bit now right? I think u can get this v3250 lower than RM2299 now. May be is santa rosa is being intro soon so old model have to drop the price now. I saw acer aspire 5052 just selling RM1999 now. The retail price is RM2299.

yup ..all lappy price gonna lower ..especially the low and mid range .. kudos for those who waited lol .. anyway it is a predictable price drop ..

what price for v3250 bro?
my budget just below 2.5k
nearly 2k is better.. heheh duit tarak lhoo.

Retail price is RM2299. I think u can get with lower price now since the laptop price is dropping.

what is the normal package for a new buying notebook?
e.g. Pendrive/Webcam etc...
or it's only notebook alone?

any news, HP with new Santa Rosa processor?

for some reason john cant on9 in the forum for these few days ,

normally ll gift u mouse & pendrive only for low budget laptop. Medium range laptop ll gift u kengsinton lock and printer. Some shop can rebate to cash if u discharge the freebie.

i prefer rebate cash lol .. freebies not my taste hehe

Thanks for your advice.

I plan to use it for my work (I work in a Engineering Consulting environment) and personal use. Not really into games. Sometimes need to view CAD files.

What is your opinion on AMD Turion 64X2 against Intel duo 2 core?
A friend recommended AMD Turion.
Not sure abt AMD. Heard that it overheats etc.

Cannot decide whether to go for AMD or Intel

Would really appreciate your reply.

Cheers

nope AMD had solved the heat problem .. Turion64x2 is on par wit DUO CORE ..lol ..not Duo 2 Core ..so Duo 2 Core is way better than Turion64x2 ..

but if u wan to get a non dedicated gpu ..u should get a AMD coz theire chipset comes with integrated nvidia graphix while intel comes wit GMA ..

AMd turion x2 no heat problem as well. dont worry about that. It also can control to be more energy saving by powernow technology.

If u got higher budget get Intel C2D. The archicture of design is better than Turionx2.

* If u want to take Intel procesor pls hold on ur order until x3100 IGP release. The X3100 is design to support well in vista environment.

recommendation - get a dedicated graphics ..lol ..coz u gonna use heavy Autocad too ?

Guys, i just bought the HP Compaq Presario V3000 laptop... What do u guys think of this entry-level Celeron notebook, btw?

izzit the one rm1999 with celeron proc? for normal usage should be no problem .. hehe ..congrates

Hi guys, juz bought Toshiba A200-530 from William, very recommended

for his services.....Excellent. Found this lappy last min, i rush to LowYat plaza

to meet him, everything complete within 1 hours. Will write more later,

now buzy testing new lappy. Thx William.

Thanks for the compliments bro... And i actually got it for RM1799 from a friend's shop...

Well, as for the laptop itself, the widescreen is something cool, first time using such a notebook... The built-in Altec Lansing speakers is also a plus-point... And most important of all, for this price, there is WiFi available!

I'm looking around for a laptop with decent gaming capabilities but not too big please; 15" screen would be the max. Budget would be RM8k max.

Thanks

The last price I know is RM2299. Anybody got further update of this model price?
oh ya, remember to save some to straight upgrade to 2G Ram for Vista.

Agree. May I know, will the intel x3100 IGP better than the AMD intergrated Nvidia?

How much you brought? Is that a santa rosa model?
