CQ40 125AX + 4GB 800MHZ Ram + Freebies at RM2050  doh.gif

Dear All,

I bought it at MYPC, most likely it's a miscalculation of price as the price I was told was RM2250 but somehow during the payment... it was only RM2050... Don't think it'll be that cheap for now... So guys, don't expect to get RM2050. I've been dealing with the shop for a long long long many years... I'm still waiting for a phone call from the guys at the shop to tell me that it's miscalculated... Good friends with them there...

Anyways, they don't keep stock. They only order when you want it. I'm not sure whether they'll order for just anyone. It took me around 4 days to get the laptop as there was some stock issues with the supplier.

All the best.

with 2GB or more you won't notice any improve or performance. better upgrade to 4GB ram and page all the files to ram.
