For your information, they does give RM100 rebate if u upgrade yo package more than RM200.

Besides, they oso giv out
FREE Dell Premium Optical Mouse
FREE Norton or mcafee anti-virus up to 15month

Plus, they also give out free usb Hub for those who make payment on spot. While stock LAST

I make my order at 6.45++ p.m , when i ask for the hub, only last 2 left  biggrin.gif

So try to get some freebies in the next pc fair.

My spec are as follow:
T5450 1.66Ghz/667mhz
Vista basic
14.1 Widescreen + truecolor
2GB DDR2 Ram
120 SATA HDD
Internal 8x DVD+/-RW dual layer
Nvidia Geforce 8400M GS
Intel 4965AGN wifi-N
Integrated Stereo Sound
Midnight blue with 2MP webcam
Norton Antivirus OEM 15 month
9-cell battery
90W primary AC adapter (must for upgrade the video card)
Targus pulse 2 backpack
!year limited warranty

total worth RM3079 (My budget was 3k)

Is just a ok package for me, i wish to get vista premium. i will hunt some cheaper copy of vista at campus  tongue.gif

In addition, i found that the 2.0MP webcam got delay when capturing image.
Will it get better if i upgrade the video card? Any owner of 1520 /142 could help me diagnosis on this? THX  notworthy.gif

Wow, how come u got cheaper than me. I must complain liao. But online dont have the 100 rebate even tho i upgraded >200.

My specs are the exact same as yours but jus usint T5250 and 3 years complete cover. So 3389-440 (complete cover) = 2949. 2949 + 229 (T5450) = 3178. I must bising at them already. Ask them throw in more freebies.

Got it for roughly two weeks and still no time to give a deep exploration. Mainly used for normal routines - surf Internet, listen to mp3, watch TV series and etc.

hmm how did you get free optical mouse? btw i bought pink 1 means fast delivery?

The free optical mouse is a freebie for pc fair promotion. thumbup.gif
There is also free antivirus and usb hub too!!!
For the colors kits, i think u will get faster delivery as refer to the quote below . The stock is sufficient. So, estimation of 2-3 weeks, i guess...

QUOTE(machine85 @ Aug 7 2007, 05:29 AM)

I was told that white, black, yellow, pink and red has sufficient stock atm, other colors are required to wait at least 3 weeks to 5 weeks.

For dell, is the warranty thats important ? i quite regret i didnt upgrade to 3 years warranty after reading some feedback.
i read from some forumer said that

Dell provide good warranty service coz their lappy is not that stable, thus they offer "GOOD services" blink.gif
Is this true?

I've searched high and low for the solution and I found that there's some people facing this kinda problem too. There are two possibilities I can think of:
1. The game itself, but not everyone is facing this problem.
2. The GPU is too hot to handle the game.

Yeah, there isn't any widespread C&C3 crashing issue I can find.

Well is there any fix for this?

Yeah, the warranty is wotth because parts and labour is exp.

Edit : The 3 years complete cover is the reason why i choose Dell over others. Compaq and Asus do have some interesting lappy at this price range too.
