The Dell has served me faithfully for the past 6 years. It was a tough machine. Never broke down, not even when the screen hinge was dented after a nasty drop (needed pliers to pry it back to normal shape).
Things have changed, technology moved on. Mobility is a bigger priority now. The processor has been struggling to keep up with the software evolution. The now miserly 40GB hard disk is long past the glory of its yester years.
And so, a new member joined the team last weekend. It sports an impressive CV. 13.3", 1.9kg, i5, 500GB, nVidia 1GB, Ice Cool Palm Rest, 8-cell battery... Sleek and suave, the newly appointed slave.
Good old Dell is now enjoying its golden years. Not quite fully retired yet. It is well utilised by a 3-year-old tech-savvy city boy, to watch Pooh on Youtube and laugh over his baby digital photo albums.

The Asus I used served well and good. Take out extended warranty. It's worth it. Heavy cos of the large screen, but nonetheless good with graphics. Drawback is the support in KK. Not always there.... overall? Good buy!
