QUOTE(taneuhua @ Aug 21 2007, 05:44 PM) Serious. There's one story about some guy wanted to sue some company, because due to long hours usage, burned his balls. But, I guess he was doing something perverted, I mean who will put the laptop on the lap without any pants on? Other disadvantages with small size laptop, sure will have small screen size. So, don't expect to have very nice multimedia experience on tiny screens. Less USB ports, and might not have the option to get a dedicated graphics card. Take for instance the new Inspiron 1420, the only dedicated graphics is the 8400M, but no option for 8600 like the 1520. Why? because that thing will go so hot in such a compact size that it'll burned the stuff inside, and size is also a concern to fit that sucker in. yeah ... wif graphic card will temp seem up very fast but wif a cooling pad will make it cool alot even though i using the free plastic rm20 cooling pad.... so i think wif aluminium n change a high rpm fan will solve the heat prob ..... besides i think the HDD temp is more high coz normally a lappy can feel hot at the bottom left side which the HDD located (correct me if i wrong) i using my f9s for max 4hours+ oso not feeling those "hot" until terrible .... n its still reasonable hot la if compare wif my desktop power supply=.= |

QUOTE(taneuhua @ Aug 22 2007, 09:05 AM) Yea. Every time going back and forth for warranty. A new unit become like an old unit already, screws keep getting opened and closed, parts will eventually get loose. And it's wasting precious time, and the data is important. when fixed 1 part of the prob .... another part will start to have prob ....."wicked prob" occur  and i think they keep the lappy n anywhere n nvr take good care on it.... |

QUOTE(V3000 @ Aug 26 2007, 09:43 PM) Since your lappy soo small i think u better get this (CoolerMaster NotePal 12" to 15"- RM95) Made from aluminium and if not mistaken NotePal cooler come with very high RPM fan. Beside cool down ur machine, it lift your machine higher so it easier to type  v3000 , i think tis model no suite for F9s coz the fan on the upper part which face to the battery location oni.... F9s need a cooler on the middle part 1 or mayb terbalik the cooler pad to use coz the HDD alwaz hot ^^ and thinkpad disadvantage is dun have dvd rom=.= coz too thin edi.... not enof spaces for it.... haiz |
