somemore acer say its no.1 notebook brand in malaysia in 2005 wor.....really live up to the standard ar.....

Haha..let's not let this be a asus vs acer thing..they're both reliable brands. Good or not it comes down to the individual model.. Asus have good notebookbooks and some not so good ones and vice versa.. I don't recommend twinhead though..

Yeap, 7 hours is insane..but i think dell's base 1.8ghz t7100 is sufficient. On the go you'll probably be in power saving mode which underclocks the processor anyway. Dell latitude looks too businessish for me though. The new inspirons are worth a look, but i think a year from now starbucks will be full of em..

oh sorry bout the vs.....just wanna different opinions...im trying my best to do research so that i wont be regretting and bang my head on the wall in the future..hehe. ...hmmm...but dell's kinda ex for me..5k plus

well if you can wait for a while more, there's a PC fair on the 7-9 December 2007.
I'm quite sure there'll be models that are cheaper and hold the same specs.

december pc fair, mayb laptop come out wif c2quad edi???

haha...I'm looking forward to my next Intel OctoCore..

omg.....wad intel octo core..tsk tsk..intel is developing to fast..when is tad wor....hehehehhehe

try not to get into a fanboyism flamewar, but i wouldn't touch or go near any acer.

I do not own an acer, but my gf does. So , the job of reformating the nb and maintaining it became my duty automatically.

I've have so much problem with the acer till i literally gave up. to list down afew,

the nb have an ATi x1300 card, but when i was looking for the driver in ATi's website, i could find all other nb brands but not ACER in the official site. fine. next step would be searching for them in the Acer website. Which i found the driver, but then when installed, it is not supported. Hence, the X1300 card is useless in that nb now.

there's a built in webcam. then again, installed the provided drivers with the cd and again , no hardware found. hence again, the webcam is useless.

since i couldnt freaking get the x1300 working, i couldn't hook the nb with the projector. hooking it on the projector give me shit load of issues. ( not to say i have no experience in these settings, in fact, i've hooked up pretty much other brands of nb to different lcd projectors)

there's more to come, but guess i should stop here.

Asus? my sister is using the M5, and being a girl who knows little about computer, she handles it 2 years without any major problem besides there's one time where the charging component gave a buzzing sound. but problem was rectified n solved very fast by asus.

with their renowed name in motherboard making, i would rather trust asus and acer.

no1 best selling in malaysia ? with that kind of price, any brand would be no 1. I accept the fact that acers are cheap, but not exactly the best bang for buck nb. and yea, try not to believe too much in advertisements.
