Guys,

need opinion here. I'm getting a laptop within this month, but I need some feedbacks, I had to choose between :-

1) Dell Inspiron 1420

Description:


Intel® Core2 Duo Processor T5750;
(2.0GHz, 2MB L2 cache, 667MHz FSB)
Genuine Windows Vista® Home Basic 32 bit SP1 Edition (English) ;
2GB DDR2 SDRAM;
14.1 WXGA Display (1280x800) Display with TrueLife
Nvidia®GeForce 8400M GS with 128MB GDDR3
Integrated 2.0 Mega Pixel Webcam;
160GB SATA Hard Drive;

OR...



Compaq Presario V3840TU (FE107PA)

Description:


Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor T5750
(2.0GHz, 2MB L2 Cache, 667MHz FSB);
Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium;
2GB 667MHz DDR2 Memory;
160GB SATA Hard Drive;
14.1” WXGA High-Definition HP BrightView Widescreen Display;
LightScribe SuperMulti 8X DVD±RW with Double Layer Support;
nVidia GeForce 8400 3D PCI-Express Graphics card;

Take note that I am not a fanboy of either one of the brand...My usage is online gaming/surf/MS office/torrent.. gaming part, well not a very graphic-intense game,+WoW(world of warcraft),pirate king online(for my sister,this is a cheap game btw) n im a heavy multi-tasker (2gb is good enough?)

Thank you in advance for any positive feeedbacks.

Hi guys, I need some helps here...

1. Brand --> Anything in senses of convenience of availability.
2. Budget --> Hopefully not MORE than 1,400.
3. Specs --> Nothing fancy, PURPOSES & ESSENTIALS are written below.
4. Size --> The smaller the better.

Purpose (Daily usage)
-------------------------

- Internet surfing (Forums, streaming, E-mails, IM)
- Light gaming (Dota, O2jam, low-end online games)
- Torrent downloading
- Microsoft Office

I stated my purposes here, as I wont be sure of the specs I will NEED, some people say 2gb ram is good, but what's so good if u dont utilize its maximum capability, right? coz I am no rocket science in Computer stuffs.

I'm in a quite hurry as I will need to buy it by Thursday lol...coz Wednesday will be the day I do survey at Lowyat Plaza.

Thanks in advance!
