Hopefully it will be available here soon and at a really reasonable price. To my direct raw exchange rates conversion, the Aspire 3935-6504 should come at the earlier RM3k, which seems quite reasonable for the specs and portability.

There are two problems you might see with the laptop, spec-wise... WTF they give only a 4-cell? Hopefully it is long lasting or... there goes portability(I must see 4 hours clocked or else!). XP Another one being the chipset being used. Why can't they use the nVdia chipset with the built in GeForce 9300M or even 9400M? That would had made the laptop all the better.

Ah well, since it hasn't come over to this side and that that' the US specs, does not mean we will get those specs... if it comes here. >_>

Acer Aspire 8935G Specifications
  • Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor technology
  • Microsoft Windows Vista® Home Premium with Service Pack 1
  • 18.4-inch Full HD Acer CineCrystal™ LED Display
  • ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 4670
  • 4X Blu-ray Disc™ Writer/DVD SuperMulti double-layer combo drive
  • Acer Crystal Eye Web Camera
  • 5-in-1 Digital Media Card Reader

  • 10.1 lbs.
  • 17.34" (W) x 1.73" (H) x 11.62" (D)

At any rate, the more important one here is the 8935G. Looks like a screen size upgrade to our current 16" version(well actually the 18.4" never came over here, to my knowledge). To my personal view, the gaming graphics doesn't change much and the screen resolution is the same, but you'll get a much bigger screen, which in turn makes it easier to read, especially with that kind of resolution on a laptop screen(though I guess battery life will reduce).

Hrm, the thing that kinda interest me this laptop is the... BD writer. w00t! Finally! But in the end, I'd probably won't be getting such a powerhouse of a laptop. X/

Okay, that's all for my randomness for now. This is yet another filler post. XD

Oh BTW, for those who are gamers and did not went to the PC Fair recently, the ATI Radeon HD4890 is everywhere in M'sia already. ^^
