i say Dell Studio 15 is already good enuf...
when comes to Mac, for the price u pay, u can get a much better spec laptop... for eg, for the same performance, BenQ S42 is only slightly more than rm3k (rm3250 to be exact)... |

QUOTE(kowei1989 @ Oct 17 2009, 12:01 AM) hahah...i wished the specs would be upgraded after window 7 launch..cause i am getting 1 soon...and new gc mayb? a 4650 might own? but I guess with that kind of price we won't get that good gc look for N60Dp instead...Turion II Dual Core with HD4670 and HD4200... i'll be the first one to bang my head on the wall if K40Ab has got HD4650... Added on October 17, 2009, 7:18 am QUOTE(SheepMekk @ Oct 17 2009, 03:33 AM) I heard that Mac couldn't support much game. But Since mac can install windows, what's wrong with it? It should be able to support everything? if u have reasons to use both Mac OS X and Windows, yes, that's fine...but if u buy a Mac, format OS X away, and use only Windows, i'll be the first 1 to lol... i feel sad for u and ur parents, as it's a total waste of money... if u get a Mac becuz of the design, i'll ve no comment at all...
