@dan4u: thanks bro. Can't we buy this after 2yrs? Pick up and Drop cost are high. I certainly can't pay more.

I mean same as previous, throttling started at 98%. What now?

:) Guys Samsung has introduced an offer called smart Warranty (link), we can now extend warranty for 1yr, 2yr or 3yr, apart from the original 1yr warranty. price of extended warranty is here ......so now that's peace of mind..

Suppose i but the piece and get extended warranty upto 31st august 2012 now.

Than if i pay for 3 years smart warranty?So in all how much warranty expect?1 year extra over the 2 free or total 5 years?

Any voice for or against the acer aspire v3?

Available for 44k(price given on tech guru cnbc awaaz i havent checked in market personally) though hdd and ram are less and also dedicated gfx is 640m.

But at this price does it compete with the sammy i7 exclud gfx because changing hdd and ram will cause another 5k expense .And getting it at 48k looks a steal minus gfx
Does someone support the view.Also one see they also provide 90w charger not much.

I am talking about this model

Acer Aspire V3-571G-73614G75Mn

i said the price was mentioned on 21 laptop kick or pick test on this week tech guru show on cnbc awaaz.

The price was only reason to quote the same.Else i have never been fan of acer products.

Also regarding samsung smart warranty program.It clearly states its for notebook 9 series .Hence might not be available for us.

Agreed but after the mobile ads where they say call any mobile at 10p per minute. in bottom-line they state same mobile network.I have become a pessimist.

I also waiting for you guys to confirm it.

If once done i can buy the piece else i have to buy a downside model because already i am forwarding my tablet budget to get this piece and i want no trouble at-least for 4 years.

Also wanted to ask you guys suppose i am at home and i wanted to play games or work on it and doesnt want battery to wear.Can i use lappy with ac power removing battery from the system?Will it help.I know power cut risk but i do have a ups and i plan to use it that way and also not to trouble battery much.

Is it right practice?
