orionlight SG It is made by Lenovo, a china company.But the parts and QC still IBM standard for the thinkpad series
elspeth SG ...and just wondering how come the warranty for a laptop so short 1 yr onli.. whereas for other IT products like mouse, k/b mobo, cpu... ram all so long.. at least 2 yrs or more ... and a laptop is more ex than any of these...
kitkat_ SG Hi guys, Im thinking of getting a laptop too. Mostly will be for school work, surfing, listening to music and watching movie. Im interested in the latest Sony VAIO merely because I'm attracted to the design. But I do not know how good it is, anyone using it or knows something about it can enlighten me? Im very lousy at computer stuffs, my knowledge of it is limited. Im just wondering for that pricing, will it be more worth it if i get another brand of laptop? P.S my budget is around that pricing. http://www.sony.com.sg/microsite/vaio/products/vaio_cr/vgn_cr22g/index.html Kitkat_ =)
Rockhound SG TS want everything...wtf....more like he not serious in anything.... damn lazy to recommend liao..like nothing entering head wants and needs 2 different things leh.. most of ure criteria is wants.. needs? honestly wat ure needs are: 1. Processing power 2. Standalone GPU 3. Weight consideration...below 1.7-2.5kg just concentrate on this la u want everything...then u buy the most expensive one a particular brand has to offer la.. ask here no use..not like we can sell u a laptop of ure dreams
Rockhound SG Y ppl like Vaio?...not like its so impressive other than the outstanding 11hr battery life..too much channel news asia.. sony is like onli synonomous with sound products arh,....so overrated...looks aint everything
Rockhound SG cos its liddat...want 3 years coverage...then pay extra...its how they make their extra money... unless u get from IDA student tender laptops...or work for MOE...laptops most standard 1 year
Rockhound SG lenovo still impressive and robust lar....damn supersart....my workplace 90% lenovo thinkpads.. never regret paying extra
saline SG hi, for the T61 i notice there is 3 diff types of graphics. Namely : Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100, 128MB nVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M and 256MB nVIDIA Quadro FX 570M. can anyone tell me the diff?
Rockhound SG get the 256mb one the intel GMA X3100 is very basic but touted as being able to handle games like WOW...BF2..
elspeth SG wah like that the quadro can handle crysis and ut3? didnt' know thinkpad got so gd graphic scard... maybe i might think of getting one...
elspeth SG k lar sory sory... thanks for all yr recommendations and inputs on this matter anywways...
elspeth SG sony really 11hrs batt life? fully charged or what? for standard laptops how long is their batt life without a ac power plugged in? the last time my lappie i used las tme onli 2 hrs plus gone liao.
orionlight SG You will only get 11 hours if you do word processing etc(simple stuff). For standard laptop, the battery life will vary according to your usage.If you game, dun expect the battery to last beyond 1.5 hour.For normal usage(watching Video, listening to music, word processing), the battery shuold last between 2-3 hours. Again this depends on the spec of the laptop, the more powerful your laptop(Standalone GPU), the lousier will the battery life be After reading 3 pages of your thread, i gather you are just a lazy bum who can't be bothered to do your homework and just keep asking.It is you who is buying the laptop, not us.
elspeth SG all laptops widescreen nowadays? why no non-widescreen but standard res type of screen like 1024×768 or 1280×1024?
elspeth SG i’m starting to fall in love with the ibm lenovo thinkpads already. they’re non-widescreen for starters.
