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.

Compaq Presario V3840TU come with Intel X3100 Integrated graphic only.

Hello there.

I'm thinking of getting a laptop, but I can't make up my mind or cannot find a suitable one that fits the information specified below, so I'd appreciate any help I could get. So far, the one that's caught my eye the most is the Dell Inspiron 1420, but it has a Broadcom wireless card in it, which I'd rather avoid.

Brand: Anything but Acer.
Budget: below RM3000, cheaper better.
Specs:
CPU: Intel Centrino Duo 2.0 GHz or higher, or AMD of similar spec (preferably Intel)
RAM: 2GB DDR2 or higher
HDD: 160GB or higher
GPU: Anything Intel.
Wireless: 802.11b/g, preferably Intel
Optical drive: Something with DVD and CD burning capabilities
OS: None, FreeDOS, some Linux distro, or if cannot, Windows will be fine (The cheaper the better, I intend to wipe it out and replace with Ubuntu)
Webcam: present
Screen Res: The higher the better
Size: 14.1" or 15.4" or anything in between

Thanks in advance.

1. Brand
-Dell
-HP
-Mac (not much of a preference but just putting it here to give some options smile.gif )

2. Budget
-3.5-4k

3. Specs
- Dual-core processor, such as the Intel Pentium D
- 2GB ram at least
- NVDIA GeForce 8400ms or higher

4. Size
- preferably 13inch screen
- weight about 1.7-2kg

I'm currently a student at uni so I'll mostly be using this laptop do to my assignments and all the basic stuff like online chatting, streaming etc. Need a lighter laptop because I would be taking public transportation and walking up to uni everyweek. Wouldn't want to break my shoulders carrying the baby:)

At the same time, I play World of Warcraft fairly often, so I hope that the laptop could run the program smoothly >.<

I've screened through Dell XPS 1330, but I'm a bit skeptical about it as there are many complaints about it being faulty and stuff within the first few weeks if not a year after use. Hopefully you guys could give me some pointers about what I should get. Hopefully the pros and cons too, cause I know not all laptops are thaaaaaaaaat awesome, hehe.

Besides m1330, U can try the Dell Vostro 1310 which is 13" LCD too.

Buying a laptop for dad. Need recommendation.
No need high end specs, cause he'll just use for surfing net.
Budget ~Rm3k.
Prefer branded like Sony, etc. Thanks in advance.
*
Sony with budget below RM3k just can get T2xxx processor only. Not worth to buy the brand. U can try dell with C2D T5xxx above(within RM3k).
