I'm considering the HP pavilion tx1221au with the price RM 2999 currently in the market. Need comment from u guys. It's AMD athlon 64 TK-53.
i wonder the screen is blur and the color is fade if compare to other HP pavillion. Any suggestion? Really need help here... Izzit it gonna bring me problem after i purchase it?

Dear monkeymagic, my suggestion for u is go for HP Pavilion 2505TX

Intel core 2 duo processor T7300 (2.0GHz)
2gb RAM
HDD 160 GB SATA
14.1 TFT WXGA high definition Widescreen LCD panel with 15.9 Aspect ratio with Brightview technology
DVD +/- RW double layer drive
Bluetooth
Web cam 1.3 megapixel
Fingerprint
Vista premium
Weight around 2.5kg(consider protable device also)

Price = RM 5499
The HP design is much prettier than the Dell XPS M1330.
i have seen the XPS in klcc PC fair, i feel the device is not solid. Earlier i thought to buy M1330 but after i seen it, i switch my target to HP pavilion TX 1200.

If you can budget at 6-7k, take a look on Sony Vaio!!!!

HP pavilion DV2500 will suit u chenghoe.. Take a look on HP pavilion, i strongly recommend u to take HP. Dell is the second choice. If u can have mroe budget, take SONY Vaio(the latest C series)
Hope my suggestion can help u.

If i were you i will go for Compaq Presario V3400, there are several models, check it out which one suit u(beware some of it are freedos)
Besides, i will take a look on Dell inspire 1420... 2k+ also. check it out at its web.

I suggest you go for HP Pavilion DV6505TX
Price RM 5499
T7300, 2 Gig RAM, 160 HDD, 15.4 inch, Asia pacific warranty.
This model looks good and nice... good quality lappy with solid material...
Before this i were decide to take Dell XPS M1330 but at last i choose HP because of its good material surface with same spec.

Go for Dell XPS M1330 13.3 inch at 1.7+KG
But personally i have seen the M1330 at PC fair, the magnesium cover and the palmrest material is not as good as i think thus, i choose HP at last... juz got it few days ago.
If you do not like Dell, take a look on fujitsu... do not forget TwinHead also as twinhead has several 12.2 models with lower price.

what is uniqueness abot Dell Vostro? what is the differences between Dell inspire with Vostro? Vostro for business use?

Try Dell XPS M1330 at RM 3999 if i not mistaken. As you are marketing exec thus the Dell complete cover will suit u. If u wan looks good as bussiness person take HP. If u looking for spec only take Acer Travel Mate PC.

Why not u try HP pavilion TX 1221au. RM 2999nett.
AMD athlon 64 X 2 TK-53 1.7GHz processor
Nvidia 6150
160 HDD
1 Gig Ram
Vista premium.
Addiotional battery, Remote control, touch screen

I juz got it one month ago.

Added on September 12, 2007, 7:45 pmAsk her to get Sony Vaio CR. RM 4988 if i not mistaken.
perfect for ladies, good in pink or red color pretty good and solid. she will love it!
she is not gaming player thus the spec is okay.

Added on September 12, 2007, 7:48 pmif you are not gaming purpose. ATI Radeon Xpress 1150 can serve you more than 2 years unless you are a graphic designer then u need higher spec.

Added on September 12, 2007, 7:52 pmNot so sure about the BenQ service but if u are normal use, i think the lappy shd be okay. Strongly suggest you to get it as i do not like acer as well especially the gemstone design. S41 is solid and the design is simple nice. For me it's not bad and can be considered due to the price is reasonable too!

TX 1221au and LifeBook A3110 cannot be compared as TX is 12.1 screen and A3110 is 15.4.
It depends on your needs. TX is much more cheaper and it's only 2.0kg. while A3110 is 2.75kg, somemore you need to spend money on upgrading the RAM as it comes with 512MB only.
Of course, if u can afford and dun mind the weight, then go for Fujitsu.
If u looking for smaller lappy then TX is the best for you. I juz bought TX one month ago, pretty small and solid. the drawback is only the screen and u need more RAM if u run alot of applications.

Added on September 13, 2007, 4:29 pmThen u should look for Fujitsu S series. 13.3 inch with below 2.0kg. Take a tour on Fujitsu, Im not so sure about the price. in my mind, i would ask u to get S6410.

Besides, if she can wait for about 2months delivery date, why not consider about the Dell XPS M1330.

Added on September 13, 2007, 4:32 pmGO for Dell XPS. They have reduced the price, take a look on this.
http://www1.ap.dell.com/content/products/p...s=dhs&cs=mydhs1

Besides u may take a look for Fujitsu S series but the price might be higher.
Thus Dell XPS is the best deal at the moment.

what brand do you prefer? you go for spec or design? purpose of using? graphic emphasize, screen size?
one of the model you can get perhaps is Acer aspire 4720G(RM3400), the spec is okay. check it out. hope it helps.

Lee, if you don't mind using AMD then take Aspire 4520 and spend money to upgrade to 2 gig RAM with another RM300. Instead of choosing intel T5250 but u only get 512RAM. For me i will choose 4520 with processor of AMD then upgrade to 2 gig RAM thus the price will be around RM 2350 (still the worth buying)

Aspire 4315 definitely not recommended as it is linux unless u have ur budget at that range.

Get Hp pavilion TX 1221au for RM 2999. i juz bought it one month ago. 1 gig RAM, 160 HDD. DVD combo, AMD processor. Pretty good for student and home user use.
Other recomdation is Twinhead, Small and price good with its spec. Or else u have to see compaq or acer already.

One of my friend in malacca told me that Twinhead is fantastic with its performance if u don't mind its look. It's small, light and price attractive! But personally i have not tried it b4. Anyway, you can check their service. I think there would not be a big problem.
Dell is a most wanted PC. Great price and spec too if u like its design. The latest Dell XPS has cool look. Go to have a look at its web. One thing i dislike Dell is they change their price and spec pretty fast, for example, u get a 5k laptop from Dell, after 1-2 weeks u will notice that the laptop that u bought have reduced the price to 4.5k, or with the 5k they offer another great deal in better spec. This is the feeling i do not like. Unlike HP or Sony they have control the price so well and stable, u will not get disappointed by HP or Sony or Fujitsu or Asus toshiba and.... anyway, diff organization have diff way to satisfy their customers.

i would ask u to take XPS. with 5.5k budget, u can get the premium complete cover from Dell. It's pretty good, 3 year full cover! some more Dell XPS is slim and sexy, but i think u need to wait 1-2 month for delivery hehe.

Get Dell XPS M1330 or Inspiron 1420. otherwise get Acer. u may have a look on BenQ S41 also if u do not like Dell model and Acer design. BenQ S41 price pretty reasonable.
T7250 is santa rosa processor. Run faster. if you do run high graphic progrom like illustrator, then processor doesnt affect much.

Get HP PAVILLION TX 1221au. RM 3000 i think... with nice webcam and internal microphone

Go for Sony Vaio CR.. with 5k budget u can get a decent graphic card already. Besides there was color who suit every girl. Totally design for female. Other alternative is HP pavillion. Go check the in the market there was a model which was launch recently(a week ago), i not sure with the model but the design and really sleek and pretty. Hope u pick what you like.

Get this HP special edition. check it out

Pretty good, 2gig Ram, Santa Rosa, 160 HDD and excellent finishing by HP, RM 3900 selling at low yatt. Greeting!

I think Dell had package come with windows XP one. Besides, look for compaq, most of compaq model at 2.0k+ come with freedos. I read newspaper today notice that NEC model also come with freedos but around 2.7k, perhaps over ur budget.

Added on December 9, 2007, 4:15 amC2D T5250 is more than enough to with with ur daily task like assignment and movie, if budled with 8600 then it's more perfect u can play better graphic games and run photoshop or illustrator.

Added on December 9, 2007, 4:19 amDell is definitely trusable. Most largest or 2nd largest computer maker in the world if i not mistaken.

Go for XPS 1530 as it's quite latest model, pretty nice, come with better quality and technology. of course the drawback is u have to pay more if wan to get same processor with inspiron 1520.
Somehow, 2.4 or 2.2 might not a big difference, so if i were u i will definitely go XPS instead of Inspiron.
