that one is seriously overpriced. should be priced at 30k or less. no bag, extra warranty, cooling pad. just an old game is bundled.

yeah the offer is pretty horrible. Dirt 3 free..bleh.
It's pretty similar to the one HP05ax but it has more graphic memory (2gb) BUT a smaller keybad, yet about 3k more price. DAFUQ?

One more bump. I have some more time.
CAN I expect any more trinity based releases within this month or first week of next?
HP05, and Acer being the only two with releases.
Acer is overpriced, lacks a keyboard, and no nice offer on FK.
Hp05ax is good, but it feels a slight compromise considering I can flex my budget upto 40-42.

i doubt there will be A10 based laptop anytime soon. A10 + Radeon 77XX will make for a killer laptop under 40k (if priced so cheap). Else expect a few more A8 based laptop around 30-33k. But waiting mayn't be worth it.

I'm currently using my mom's laptop (Dell LatitudeD630).
Thing is, there's no 'hurry' to buy a new one. I mean I can do my assignments and ****, as of now, as it's mostly office/turbo c et cetera. But I surely do miss my games :'] I absolutely hate the feeling of buying something, and realising that something better just came out days/week after I made the purchase. Happened to me when I bought my first phone, my first laptop. Those were all hasty purchases and I ended up buying the least-feasible choice, budget wise or whatever. So this time I was planning to buy patiently, something good, and something that will last, hence my numerous amount of queries. My friend's been using the 571G Acer, with 2G 630M, and it's very good, both in terms of performance as well as gaming, and he got it for about 42-43k. Considering my choice(2005AX) as of now, I feel it will be a little restricting in the future, seeing that the proccy isn't as good as the intel ones, granted the gaming-area is very powerful though. I read somewhere about A10's coming soon, with dual graphics(better cards crossfired), and it won't be as costly as the intel ones, I can expect a good laptop under 40k, or just slightly more than it. I saw the 05 and the 06TX models at croma.. I quoted fk prices, they were demanding about 34.5 for 05, and 43.5 for 06tx. The salesman kept telling me don't go for 06.. buy 05. He said he'll give me a free game(bleh), some random croma equipment with it to.. (a box full of stuff you know will stop working the next day).

On the 05ax, I didn't like the arrow-key placement. The up and down arrow keys are SO near to each other, it's very tough to use it. And the entire body was like a finger print magnet. Nevertheless, he showed me a demo, and got to run , I guess dirt3 , and it was running smoothly and nicely. So still on crossroads. Couldn't find the Acer 551 model with AMD A8 and 2.5gb graphics. It was priced around 38 he said, no offers with it.

*Confused soul*
