Per my xp, last time bought a Tecra, the battery already “kong”, it has not been even 3 months I use this lap.

Check for battery warranty. Also I presume from this incident, probably they are giving out “display” set as battery could be used all out back then.

Not bad but I dont think its really 50% cheaper. They jacked up the price and then discount 50%.

Anyway, for your laptop, I think its pretty decent. Just the Ati Radeon 2600 might be slower only. Although Nvidia GPU has some problem, it still the fastest money can buy at this moment. If you asked me, I would buy a laptop with Nvidia GPU if you really game on it. CPU really has little effect nowadays on gaming performance. Besides, if you are using it on battery, the cpu wont run at full speed also. It will throttle down as much as possible which makes no difference regardless of cpu speed. You can easily find a used mobile cpu to upgrade as times passes but upgrading a GPU is almost impossible.

Notebook price drop for 2nd hand is ridiculous. Thats why I would NEVER EVER recommend any of my friends and relatives to get a USED one UNLESS its 50% OFF and only ONE YEAR OLD OR LESS.

If you got a slight idea how computer/laptop evolve, you would know the cycle. PC and Laptop takes a big step every 18months after the previous big release with some minor speed improvement and such in between. Its just like 18months ago Intel released Core2Duo processor and the market goes along with it. 18months later which nearby already, Intel already preparing Nehalem which is the next step forward. Thats is why computer and laptop are getting cheaper as I say. Manufacturers are clearing their inventory and move on the next bandwagon.

I would say its a good deal if you managed to get digital photo frame for RM199 each but not if you are getting a T5750 Core2Duo laptop with X3100 for 1k+. Know what you are buying as laptop price drop is very steep when the next thing is just around the corner. Intel will focus on Nehalem for about 6months after its released before porting it into laptops. So if you can wait for 7-8months, you can start to see new laptops popping up pretty soon.

Anyone who is planning to go there tomorrow my advice is spend your time somewhere else, this is a disaster of a sale. Most of the items were out of stock and this was on the first day.
