I have tried some of the laptops, the quality is there. No doubt it is a China brand name now. Brand name aside, it's the quality the counts. If you can't trust China-made products, switch to Taiwan-made products. They too, have received high marks from people who have used it. Not only that, they are cheaper and specs are better.Originally posted by surfer188:Since it's a China Brand & has the abilitiy to buy IBM, anyone have any comment on Lenova Products??![]()

Asus builds mil-spec laptops as well, so you can be sure your laptop can survive those knocks and drops like you do with your samsung phone.Originally posted by surfer188:Asus Laptop? Anyone have experiance? What I need is really simple operations like email internet & excel.

And why the hell do we want to do things like these to our laptops?Originally posted by shade343:Durabooks are the best. YOu can immerse the thing in a bathtub of water and it wont corrode!
You can also jump ontop of it and the lcd screen will still be intact. Truly a wonder indeed....
Well, you never know...Originally posted by ditzy:And why the hell do we want to do things like these to our laptops?
They last longer, provided you do normal stuffs like word processing. Do other things like Photoshop, video editing, you will see 9-cell battery lasting shorter or just as long as 6-cell ones.Originally posted by surfer188:True lei most can do.
After I re-search... I found I need some specs ... 2.0Ghz processor, 2Gb ram, DVD burner, wireless lan & long lasting battery 4~5hrs at least.
What is those saying 5cell battery 6cell battery & 9 cell battery meaning? How to relate to time of usage?
You want those get an IBM. My heart will stop beating if I ever do these.Originally posted by shade343:Durabooks are the best. YOu can immerse the thing in a bathtub of water and it wont corrode!
