    ano mas bang for the buck?:-? laki kasi ng difference ng price nila. Bale gagamitin lng ni wifey pang office documents while on duty (kya mas portable sana ung 12"), play movies then paminsan minsan hiram ko for DOTA:D (disadvantage nmn ung 12").

    Cguro ano na lng mas reliable at mas ok ung support?

    Thanks

    Thanks po sa lahat ng reply...

    *mikmik316, kmusta po sir ang quality ng neo at twinhead compared sa established brands like HP, IBM, Acer, etc? Based sa na-search ko d2 sa tsikot (year 2005 posts) eh medyo pangit ang review sa twinhead kc sirain daw and casing at nag ooverheat. Ok na ba ngayon ang build quality nila? how about sa after-sale support? pag sayo ako kumuha may warranty parin? mas gusto ko sana sa mga known brand na pero mahal kc sila
