I suggest you go get an Compaq CQ40-125AX... Its only RM2099 and the specs are budget and better than both HD3200 and 9100m. Its has an ATI HD3450 dedicated gpu with 256mb gddr2 graphic memory.. Here are the specs :-

AMD Turion 64x2 RM-70 2.0ghz 1MB Cache
1GB DDR2 RAM
250GB SATA2 HDD  rclxms.gif
14.1 inch widescreen lcd
ATI HD3450 256mb GDDR2  thumbup.gif
DVD Burner with lightscribe  rclxms.gif
5 in 1 Card Reader/WIFI 54G/Bluetooth
Webcam
2.29kg

Comes with freedos for RM2099 in lowyat pc zone....This notebook has almost full specs including bluetooth.  icon_rolleyes.gif

hmm..the only thing extra is the harddisk..and i have 2gb ram..which is more than enough...and for the graphics card...ati radeon hd3200 is more than enough for me....and for the bluetooth..i can get the bluetooth adapter for about rm30 anywhere...so for rmm200 extra i will only get 130gb of harddisk and extra bluetooth..
