Looking at the Thinkpad SL400 and Vostro 1520.
have a Asus EEEPC 1000H. Happy with it but looking for something bigger i can spend the whole day writing on in the office/home/public places.
hardly watch dvd or listent to music on it....prime criteria is comfort keyboard and big screen.
The thinkpad is my first choice...No OS ...never mind can self install win7 in there.
are there better alternatives in the RM2,000 - RM2,300 range?

Asus K40 and K50 series, Dell Inspiron 14 and 15

Thanks 4 ur suggestions. By the way I just happened to check on Acer website bout this laptop Acer Gemstone 5935G-862G50 which has similar specs as Dell Studio XPS 16. So, can you help me which one is better Dell or Acer?

Thanks

the Acer counterpart for SXPS16 and N51Vn should be Aspire 5739... comes with GT 240M as well... not sure if MY has it...

wel, definitely Studio 15 is better...

Studio 15 vs K50Ab
Intel vs AMD - Studio 15 wins
HD4570 GDDR3 vs HD4570 DDR2 - Studio 15 wins
3hrs batt life vs 1.5-2hrs batt life - Studio 15 wins
no numpad vs numpad - K50Ab wins
1yr on-site warranty service vs 2yrs int'l warranty - depends
rm2699 vs rm2099 - K50Ab wins

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)...

it's abt design and warranty service...

but seriously, for photoshop u really would want to avoid Atom like plague...

can use is one thing, but everytime u use, it's probably u wait for the netbook to finish the work rather than it waiting for u...

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...
