crispylips SG I need to get a laptop for my dad. He wants it to be able to surf net(wireless), and normal word processing(Chinese too!). I am trying to find one that is durable enough physically and software-wise(don't want it to hang so often) Specs considering. -Centrino Duo(more stable right?) -ram?(how much do i need to run it without lagging?) -HD (std around 80GB) Any recommandation? Went to Best Denki. Compaq Presario was recommended. Dad seems to like it. Is Compaq good? Need to make descision by this week. welcome any help!
crispylips SG Oh yeah. forgot to mention. Budget up to 2K only. And need to get a printer as well( Budget apart). Home office type. Is Brother laser printer good?
R3SsH|n SG don't buy from those harvey norman and besk denki i suggest... they know nuts about the computers... plus once they sold it...any after sales complain is not their problem...they will direct you to here and there...
FireIce SG woah with ur budget, jus grab an Acer nothing much left for a laser printer but anyhow, brother is.......eerrrmmmm............brother is famous for faxes......and faxes only.............think about that
ditzy SG My office has this brother fax/scan/copy machine, and somehow it always works when the HP laser breaks down.
-[0]- SG Compaq sarks more than Dell imo. I used it before. The only disadvantage with Compaq is that their computer isn't compatible with other softwares except their own. So if you want to install certain software, you have to buy one with the word COMPAQ on them.
R3SsH|n SG jesus christ...i can't believe u just said that... i am using one now...its solid...near 3 years not much problem...cept the dying battery...
FireIce SG of cos i dun believe cos i have been in this industry for years and i have neber heard of such thing pls tell me im not professional enuf
