I have a netbook!

I just took my netbook back after having lunch with my friends! *Happy* But we waited at the computer shop for half an hour before I can take hold of the netbook. :(

At the moment, I can't on the netbook to browse through, it needs to charge for 8 hours before using. I can't charge it now in the shop, have to wait till we got home! I could only admire the netbook externally! LOL!

Home pc broken down, a netbook needed!

It has been over 2 months that our home desktop broken down. Hubby tried to ask for help from his friend but he is too busy to entertain us.

After waiting for 2 months, we brought the cpu to a computer shop. What was told is that the motherboard died, and the ram is needed to change to a newer version if we change the motherboard. The technician give us an estimation of RM300 to fix it.

RM300 isn't too much, but we still prefer to get a netbook instead of repairing the old desktop. Since we love to travel, a mini netbook suits us best. Hubby likes to lie on the bed surfing the net too!

PC fair in Ipoh just started, hubby and I went there yesterday and bought our mini netbook! We bought a Toshiba NB305 in white color. White color's Toshiba is out of stock, and it will arrived next week, which means we will be surfing the Internet with our white netbook next week! Yay!

My mouse is back!

That means I'm back! I'm back for blogging!

Hubby and I were surprise when we got a BRAND NEW travel laser mouse back from the computer shop for replacement of the mouse we brought for WARRANTY! Wow, it's really great to have a new mouse instate of a repaired mouse!

This mouse is a bit pricey compared to others, but it is worthy, isn't it? 2 years warranty!!!

My new travel laser mouse!

Replacement of notebook

I went to the computer shop in Greentown to exchange my notebook yesterday. They show me the newly exchange notebook and explain it to me.

I query them why they changed my notebook RAM silently. I request them to give me an explanation. The only reason they gave is "It's technical departments mistake!".

I knew it would not do me any good quarreling with them, so I took my notebook home. I will make a complain to HP.

Nowadays, we need to be much more careful in purchasing, not to give any chances for others to cheat.

Notebook disappointment

Shouldn’t it be a happy thing to bring home a brand new notebook cheaper than market price with RM240 Jusco voucher? No, not a bit! I got cheated! They are cheating! They changed the original RAM from 1 pc 1024MB to Samsung 2 pcs 512MB.

It seems that the reseller is well-known in Ipoh. How disappointed I am to found out being cheated?

I rang up the sales person to ask about it. They finally admitted that they had changed the RAM, and promise to replace the original Ram.

I spoke to hubby how they cheated me on the notebook soon after he came home. Hubby insists to replace the notebook with a brand new notebook since may be the act of changing the RAM will affect the other parts of the notebook, it may also affect the warranty for the notebook.

We go directly to Jusco reseller counter to request for the replacement and they agreed. According to the sales person, Samsung 512MB RAM is a cheaper range of RAM compared to the HP original RAM. Well, since they promised to replace a brand new notebook, then I’m satisfied and leaved the counter.

I’m collecting the notebook after 5pm at the reseller at Greentown today. This time, I would better check thoroughly before I leave the shop.

So is it true that “Good things will not be cheap, cheap things will not be good”?

HP Compact V3839TU notebook

I had changed my mind from buying B1286TU after trying to use it for 1 hour. I'm getting headache watching at a 12" LCD screen! So what I can do is to buy a larger size notebook, its 14" LCD screen. It is RM200 cheaper, RM2,399 with RM230 Jusco voucher.

May be the weight is heavier and looks cheaper also, but since I seldom bring it out, then I think it is fine for me to have a larger size notebook.

My hubby told his friend that we are going to get ourselves a notebook. His friend told him that his uncle bought his son a new notebook from US and just sent back last month, but due to his son still young (Form 1), he do not need it. They wanted to sell the notebook at RM2,400.

Hubby is so excited, he bring the notebook all the way to my office to show me. Yes, it really looks nice and expensive compared to the one I wanted to buy. But I do not like 2nd hand item, and since it is imported, I'm worrying about the warranty.

So I decided to stick to my previous decision, to buy HP Compact V3839TU. Hopefully I won't regret for it!

HP Compact Presario B1286TU Notebook

Lately, I'm searching for notebook. This is the model I'm thinking of buying. My friends recommended it for its service centre located at Bercham. If anything happened, we can just bring it back for service.

Jaya Jusco will be having J Card sales this Thursday, RM2,599 free RM250 Jusco voucher. I wanted to wait till pc fair, but I just cannot wait!
