I got 3-yr old IBM Thinkpad X31 - very satisfied!!!

 

Intel 1.4 Centrino, 12.1 Display, 512 MB, 30G HD

 

 

I want the X60 for my next notebook but my budget does not permit me so I just settled for the 14" T60. I customized it and will be ariving soon.

 

Here's the specs

Intel Core 2 Duo (2GHz)

1GB Memory( 1 DIMM only so I can easily add another 1GB when budget permits me)

120G HD, DVD R/RW, WLAN, Bluetooth. Fingerprint Reader

 

 

My wife will get my old notebook and she's very happy since it's still performing very good.

[Equus]

hey guys and girls... i'm in the market for a nice laptop... for 70,000.00, whats better, lenovo or toshiba?

[PakofLayf]

Im using an HP nx6120 since last year, the motherboard was replaced on its 8th month, formatted twice due to poor performance.

 

I do have an Apple Powerbook G4 12" also. Much reliable.

checkout ebay, you'll find cheaper and affordable prices there specially those guys that ships in HK. My suggestion: don^t bid buyitnow, and to be sure check the feedback rating of the seller before buying.

[technomarine01]

i think crystalbright is better specially when you use it out in the sun. the matte finish kasi out in the sun scatters the light all over the screen so d mo na makita while crystakbright relfects light off.

I suggest you try going to www.pchub.com. You might be able to find the part you need. then I can probably help install it and if you're not in the makati area. I can refer some in your area.

I'm planning to get a new laptop, ano ba ok ngayon? yung affordable ha, budget is 50-60k.. and where can i buy it.. hehe sorry guys ha, clueless kasi ako

If you can add a little more on your budget go for the branded ones like (Sony,Dell,Toshiba,Compaq/HP...) and buy directly to an authorized shop and always check the warranty. otherwise if you want just a laptop for everyday surfin and you don't mind clone pcs, i suggest wait a bit more in this forum and someone might PM you or vice-versa.

Lenovo Recalls 200,000 Notebook Batteries Worldwide

 

Reminiscent of 2006's Sony battery recall, Lenovo on Wednesday said that it is recalling more than 200,000 batteries manufactured by Sanyo and used in its ThinkPad models Z, T and R computers. The affected batteries should be removed immediately -- users can run their ThinkPads on AC current until a new battery arrives.

I am using Acer Aspire 5583WXMi Intel Core 2 Duo T5500, nVidia GeForce 7300 Go dedicated 256MB memory, upgraded to 1 Gig DDR2, 120GB HDD partitioned to two, one partition holds Windows XP while the other partition holds Windows Vista Ultimate. Yes, I am somewhat completely satisfied with it. Windows Vista Ultimate runs smoothly, Windows XP is very stable. I am enjoying the Aero feature of Vista. I am able to select video files as my wallpaper (Dream Scene). Company of Heroes , a PC game runs smooth on Vista but only with medium graphical settings. My only complaint is the battery which runs only for 2.5 hours on 50% LCD brightness, 1 hour and 45 minutes on 80% LCD brightness.

Pde mag tanong

Ano kinaibahan ng Dual Core, Core Duo,Pentium M, Celeron Etc.

Kasi naghahanap ako ng murang laptop eh yung nasa mga 20-30k lang sana.

Kaya lang talaga bang pinaka mataas na processor eh 1.7 Ghz?

Di kayang mag games nun.. Pero Core Duo naman karamihan does it mean double speed ng proc?

Tapos I think DDR2 Ram is better than SD.

And most laptops have built in generic video card. Mahal ba pag ng merong nvidia card na kasama or pag nag pa lagay ka mahal din ba?

 

Tnx

1. Dual core means a single physical processor having two logical processor. Basically, imbis na magproduce ng dalawang pirasong processor chip, pinagsama nila ito sa isang dye para ang labas, isang pirasong chip siya na dual core operation. Dual core CPU enhances mostly on multi-tasking, programs that run on multiple instructions at the same time.

 

2. Celeron (Celeron M for Laptops) is the low end budget processor offered by INTEL. It is produced to meet the demands for basic computer use like typing, surfing and other office works. Well it can play games though but performance will not be that good compared to its higher counterparts.

 

3. Pentium M is the laptop version of the mainstream processor of INTEL (until Core Duo came). Pentium M has far better edge over Celeron M due to its cache size and frequency. Kung budget ka sa laptop and will not be doing intense applications and at the same time can't affor the Core Duo ones, Pentium M is still a good choice.

 

4. Core Duo is the latest mobile processor of INTEL. FYI dito po nakuha din ang famous na Core 2 Duo (desktop cpu version), yung technology, efficiency and supreme performance. May kamahalan talaga ang laptops powered by Core Duo processors but their biggest advantage is the high performance capability of the CPU and efficiency (which we consider in a laptop for prolonged battery life and maximize productivity)

 

Hope this helps.

i have an acer right now. and i noticed all acers have shorter battery life compared to other brands. this is my 4th laptop and this acer has the shortest batt life.

 

i can brag about my specs, except for my batt.

[kenji_1989]

Aw di na edit yung first post ko. Anyway continuation dun sa post ni Kurtsky

 

Note again. Dont look on the performance of the processor by its frequency (Ghz). You said that 1.7Ghz ang kadalasan nakikita mo? Core Duo T2300 running at 1.66Ghz is far superior over an Celeron M which is at 2.2Ghz. Regarding sa video cards, may built in naman na graphics card na maganda for gaming like the Intel GMA900 (Graphics Media Accelerator). But dont expect that it can power up heavy duty games. Remember it is still a laptop and if you want a high end built in card (7800 GO im not sure with the model), you have to shell out some cash for that.

 

And for a 30k worth of laptop, heavy gaming is not worth it. Sa 30k budget for a laptop kung ako tatanungin mo, I will be getting a Pentium M powered laptop with GMA graphics. Tapos after sometime upgrade the RAM to boost loading times. Then ok na. Kung may higher budget ka, of course you can get yourself a much powerful laptop.
