Laptop

Laptop

Work was good today. There wasn't many patients today, I could even complete reading the Today newspaper in between the packing of the medicine. The air-con in the pharmacy is getting colder everyday. All of us will have to wear jacket to work if this continues.

Headed down to Suntec after work to meet up with sis n Lesley. Sis is getting a laptop while Lesley wanted a external HDD n speakers. A short look around the exihibition hall n asking some questions, I made the final decision of getting the Asus A8F laptop. With the specifications, this laptop is by far the most worthwhile one to get. Check this out..

Intel Core Duo Processor T2300(1.66mhz, 667mhz, 2MB L2 Cache)
-Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG network connection 802.11a/b/g
-Intel 945GM Express Chipset
Microsoft Windows XP Home SP2
14.1 WXGA colourshine & crystalshine LCD
512MB DDR2 RAM
80GB HDD
DVD SuperMulti Double Layer Drive
Integrated Bluetooth 2.0
Built-in webcam(0.35MP)
Built-in card reader
2years Global Limited Warranty

There is still a free laptop case, a USB optical mouse n another 512MB of RAM upgrade. Upon my bargaining, i even succeeded in getting a free 1GB Sandisk thumbdrive. Hehe, I sounded like an auntie bargaining at the market, but i don't give a damn, cos it's all worth it. All these with just the price of S$1998. U may not have heard about the Asus brand, but it's the world's best motherboard manufacturer. If they had not ran out out stock the day i assembled my desktop 3yrs ago, I would have gotten an Asus mainboard rather than than the MSI mainboard. Go for it if u're looking for a laptop. The PC Show ends tomorrow at 8pm.

Met Lesley after the purchase. A look around the exhibition hall didn't get her anything. Her friend got a Imation brand 1GB thumbdrive for a cheap S$59. Sheesh.. Everything is damn cheap at this show. There's still a Creative warehouse sale on the 23rd of June. Perhaps that's the best time to grab cheap speaker bargains. Hehe..

Went for dinner at Marina Square after that n came home. The crowd was crazy today. This is one of the reasons why i rather stay at home on weekends n go out on weekdays. I hate the squeezing...
