Could anyone let me know what's the best buy now for a good and light notebook. It should include a webcam and the primary use is for internet, emails, word and excel for a simple computer user who wants a technology that would last for at least 5 years.

I haven't planned any budget yet but will RM4000 fetch a really good one?

Eh...it's 5930 if i am not wrong... couldn't remember the exact numbers. The S41 i a good choice if your looking for a 120GB HDD with 1GB of RAM.

@TauhuTauhu,

what will u do for the laptop ? Business presentation ? work ? gaming ? movie ?

XPS have class 3 or 4 graphic card if im not mistaken. So u wouldnt want to have that if ur a gamer. If size really matters, then go XPS or VIAOs. I personally think VIAOs overprice but XPS always got lemons according to XPS thread here in lyn. So far thats the pattern i recognize.

how bout ASUS ?
there is many small n light weight laptops ^ ^

dear all sifus...need recommendation for buying a new lappy on behalf of a fren.
mainly for play online games, internet, DL movies, budget max 2500. pls help....any brand oso can.

budget 3K, prefer light laptop, possible? thx

erm .. anyone can help me
i wan 2 buy a laptop but i know nth at all
can any1 suggest me ?
my budget is around rm 2500~3500
my purpose is for study and bt dl ,(playing game(warcraft) as well)

the specs i wna :
1G ram , 80G HD , wifi , bluetooth , 14.1" or 15.4" screen , webcam (option), intel pentium duo core processor, 1.83ghz , dvd r/w

thx....

sinoffire,

u can buy asus with 6150 LE card or compaq with equivalent card or cheap dell but better cards (7300gs/x1300/x1400) from one of the sellers @ lyn.

acer aspire series / travelmate or compaq. there are alot of them in that range price and satisfy your needs there.

I just order 1 unit of Acer Travelmate 6291..how come the fella said cannot run win xp and only must use vista. Is it true? I havent pay him yet since he said can run win xp i dowanna use vista.

Today promotion in Dell is amazing .. Free Delivery and Free Upgrade on processor .. . 3 days only ...

P/s: But I wonder what is the next promotion after Monday, more surprise?

they're getting ready for the new line of inspirons i guess (clearing inventory)...next week should have more promotions.

sigh living in sabah sucks...laptop here = low variety and lousy models

will the s41 ship to kk?

btw it's acer aspire 5920
