Hello everyone, I wonder how we get our answer out here. Someone good-hearted will reply us here, or email us here? coz so far i din see anyone reply yet.

Well, let start my part first. I am currently buzy find out best laptop for me and so far i have no idea about it. I hope that someone will help me up. It will be very grateful.

Brand: As long as it's good then ok. Acer seems not good in quality, so it'll not be in my first choice.

Budget: Above Rm2000 below RM4000

Spec: Good clear webcam
bluetooth
graphic card, prefer Nvidia, Gforce, Radeon( Sometimes i need laptop for games, not the above 3 also can)
, as long as i can play game with nice graphic)
hardisk:200gb-250gb
memory ram: 2-4gb
vista home premium
processor 2-2.4
other thing which i din mention must good also
Size: the lighter the better
*the most important is the internet access and download speed. Maybe it has nothing to do with laptop but sometimes somehow it has. So i need a high speed in connection 1. Thanks.. reply me plz, i need a laptop badly, cash is ready but dunno which 1 to buy...

ok.. to conclude.. i need a laptop with
high performance,
high internet access speed
with graphic card..
ATI graphic is normal 1?? it worst than geforce and NVIDIA?
vista home premium.
budget around 3-3.5k.
brand: dell
size: not a prob, the smaller the better.

But i hate 1420 coz my sis bought 1 and it got alot of problem. oh ya... i cant access to the customize page in dell... i dunno which way to go...
If i cant only go for 1420, i would rather buy ASUS. That's more worth it right? As u said "pc fair give more, thats for dell". If i buy ASUS in pc fair, will i get more? Anyway, when is the pc fair and where? Thzx
