Hi laptop folks, I need your advice, the office is tasking me with purchasing a laptop but the cheap bastards are only giving me a budget of 33,000. I need your expertise in deciding which one i should get. Any suggestions would be helpful. I've narrowed down the choices to the ff:

Mukhang ok yung Neo... At least intel core na kahit solo

I agree. Pinaka OK yun Neo. New processor, bigger HD (80gb), wide format LCD. You might want to consider XP home instead of Vista home especially if you have to keep using some old software that have not been updated. Also, the VIA graphics system may not be as good as discrete graphics when gaming; but ok na for general use. I had one of those but an older Celeron model. Okay siya performance-wise. I used it for a year or so before I gave it to my daughter she is also happy with it--galing daw sumagap ng wifi ng ibang tao.

 

The Neo is known for flimsy casing (like Compaqs). The hinges on the LCD do rust-up inside and then get tighter to open until the plastic on which the hinge is mounted gives way and cracks. Yun Neo ko may kapirasong epoxy dahil dun. I now know that a few drops of WD-40 (drops lang ha!) on the two hinges helps. Plus, be sure you 'exercise' the hinges everyday if possible to prevent rust from forming. It is when you do not use it for sometime that this problems happen. We had a Compaq that self-destructed prematurely because of this.

why don't you check out the ACER 5570, core solo T1350 1.8, 512mb, 80gb HD, nice review from cooltoyzph.com and priced at 34,900 at most stores and 0% int/ 12months. Kung cash purchase baka matawaran pa yun. Saw it sa microstation in V-mall at 34,900 din but with 1gb on board memory na. just a little higher than your budget, but branded na with all the support that comes with a branded laptop.

The only negative thing about the ACER 5570 is it only comes with a linux OS, no XP or Vista included. So if you need a licenced OS you will have to add that to the cost.

 

Cooltoyz is selling it at 35k but with 2 years warranty naman. Complink has it bundled with Vista lite (didn't know meron nun) I think, 34,900 din.

thats not a negative. ;)

 

I agree. I finally wound up getting the Acer Aspire 3680NWXMi. It came with Linux but the office has a volume license for XP so I just wiped it out and installed a fresh copy of XP. The cd that came with the laptop had all the necessary drivers for the units so it took me about 2 hours all in all but i had a perfectly setup smooth running laptop. :)
