frankdelis:
please, am not conversant with laptops but i desperately need one. could anyone tell me the make,model i can go for and also the cost ,new and fairly used. thank you.

Hi Frank,

It would help if you were to let us know for what purpose you intend to acquire a laptop. IIs it for everyday home use?. For entertainment?. Will you travel with it a lot?. Are you going to run any special programs that require a powerful graphics processing capability.? There are many questions to be answered.?

I think you need to spend some time to garner an appreciation for how to choose a laptop to meet your requirements. Since you are going to be spending some hard earned cash, it is probably worth your while arming yourself with the relevant information you need to make this all-important decision. A good starting point is perhaps the following laptop buyers guide :-

http://reviews.cnet.com/laptop-buying-guide/

Depending on what you need the laptop for and your budget, you should get a laptop with the following minimum config (i.e. select a config that is future-proof - still relevant for a few more years) and add/increase resources as appropriate to suit your specific purposes:-

Basics

Pentium Dual Core/AMD Dual Core (1.6Ghz - 2Ghz)
1GB Ram (2GB preferably if you can afford it)
120GB hard disk drive
DVD/CD - (Make sure this is a DVD burner not just a reader)
Ethernet Lan/Wireless Network interface
media card reader
6 Cell Lithium Ion battery
Windows Vista Home premium

Extras

Bluetooth
Webcam
Fingerprint reader

I hope this helps.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

regards,

Brume

PS: As per choosing a good laptop model I think you can't go wrong with any of HP, Dell, SONY, Lenovo, Apple, Toshiba. HP however has repair centres in Nigeria, and for that very reason, for the Nigerian market the HPs are a smart buy indeed. This is just my personal opinion anyhow.

PS2: Prices range anywhere from 90K for a new laptop all the way up to over 200K for high end specs which are endowed with more generous resources like more CPU power, Disk capacity and memory capacity. The stronger brands like Apple, HP, Lenovo and SONY are pricey though.

FLYBOY,

I am most grateful for the opportunity that you provided and I am glad that I was able to bring the goods in much sooner than I had earlier promised. Thanks a lot for your continued business and support. I look forward to another great opportunity to be of service in the future.

regards,

Brume

Hi hotshawlng,

I just responded to your email.

regards,

Brume

The tx1000z is yet to arrive but it has already been bought. However there is another tx1000z on the way - it has a slightly faster processor (2.1Ghz). Everything else is the same.

hotshawlng:
What is the lowest price i could buy it for?

Hi hotshawlng,

I can certainly offer you a good discount on one of the Toshibas. Which one are you interested in?

Holler back,

peace,

Brume

PS: I have just sent you email!

Hi Andysim,

Based on currently available pricing I can only do the Celeron based spec you specified for 90K each (this is a wholesale price offer based on your purchase of 5 units per your earlier indication). It appears the Intel Core duo based HP 530s are priced much higher. Based on the prices I am seeing I dont see those coming in at less than 110K each. Perhaps you have found a good source, if you can get those at 95K I would suggest that you take that price.

peace,

Brume

Hi Kidgenius,

I am sorry I was unable to locate an HP model 530 at such a price that it would be to our mutual financial benefit to trade it for 90K cash. As far as I recall (if I am not mistaken), you did not have a further interest in the Compaq Presario. Please let me know if you have reconsidered your stance on that at this time.

Please get back,

Thanks,

Brume

Hi Luvus,

Thanks for your enquiries. The Lenovo brand is a very good brand indeed. They bought the PC business from IBM in 2004. A lot of people are not aware of this. If you elect to purchase an HP or a Lenovo you cant go wrong in my huimble opinion. Per your stated config, the Lenovo Y410 probably has a retail value of 140K and the Y510 perhaps -160K

I currently have a number of HPs in my inventory. I also have a Lenovo arriving next week. Here are the specs and prices of the laptops I have :-

Now lets try one little experiment :-

Go to www.hp.com
Add stuff to your shopping cart
Click on the link "Tax and shipping (all methods)"
Select State and Zip code

At the end of this exercise I am convinced that you will have to take back your statement saying "No State taxes when purchasing from the internet."

Matter of fact anyone can do this and figure that out.

Hey there Seun,

Do you know the specific motherboard you require?. I will be surprised if you cant find one locally. If indeed it is truly hard to find locally we can certainly help you get one out here. If you want to consider importing one as a last resort just holler back and we can take it from there.

Hi Adewale Afolabi,

Before the advent of the HP and Compaq merger via HP's purchase of Compaq in 2001, the Compaq brand name/identity was reknowned for quality ranking (ranked third after IBM and HP in sales) among the best of the likes of IBM, HP, SUN, etc. This singular merger/acquisition event was a result of HP and Compaqs desire to remain competitive in the contemporary PC Business of the day which was marked with intense price wars. At the time although they were ranked 2nd and 3rd by global sales figures they were facing stiff competition and the combined annual revenue following the merger was projected to place them within striking distance of the leader by sales- IBM. AFAIK, this strategy paid off in the long run and IBM eventually sold its fledging PC business to Lenovo in 2004 and HP/Compaq is now ranked first.

I would imagine that the current Compaq presarios are manufactured in the same facilities as the other HP product lines. So when you buy a Compaq presario today you are actually buying a HP manufactured product which AFAIK should be manufactured to the same quality as other HPs.

I would contend that the Compaq should in fact be as good a product as the HP is. However in my humble opinion, HP has deliberately weakened the Compaq brand name by only producing low end Compaq PC products following the merger. So what I think you actually have is an equally good Compaq product but a weaker brand name.

This is just my 2 cents though,

regards,

Brume

andysim:
that was great, did not expect d reply that fast, ok, the spec. are as follows:
intel core 2 duo T7100
1.8GHz/1gbof DDR2/17" screen/ 160GB hdd/super multi dvdrw/remote control/webcam/bluetooth.
thanks

Hey Andysim,

Based on your descripttion it appears that you are leaning towards a dv9700t which is 17" core 2 duo. I didnt find it in 1.8Ghz. The closest in processor speed to your spec are 1.67 and 2.0Ghz.

Here is a quote directly from HP for a minimaly configured 2.0Ghz dv9700t (the 1.67Ghz is only $50 cheaper and IMHO is the less desirable option) with tax included :-

HP Pavilion dv9700t customizable Notebook PC
GT811AV

* – Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium (32-bit)
* – Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 Duo Processor T5750 (2.0GHz, 2MB L2 Cache, 667MHz FSB)
* – 17.0" WXGA+ High-Definition HP BrightView Widescreen Display (1440 x 900)
* – 2GB DDR2 System Memory (2 Dimm)
* – 256MB NVIDIA GeForce 8400M GS
* – FREE Upgrade to HP Imprint Finish (Radiance) + Fingerprint Reader + Webcam + Microphone!!
* – FREE Upgrade to Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 4965AGN Network Connection and BluetoothTM!!
* – 250GB 5400RPM SATA Hard Drive
* – LightScribe SuperMulti 8X DVD+/-RW with Double Layer Support
* – No TV Tuner w/remote control
* – 8 Cell Lithium Ion Battery
* – Microsoft(R) Works 9.0

To change quantities or remove selected items, click on
Notebook instant rebate –$150.00
Order subtotal $1,049.99

and your order total is,


Discount –$150.00

Subtotal $1,049.99


Estimated tax* $90.56

Standard shipping FREE






Order total $1,140.55


As you can see, it comes to $1049.99 before tax or $1140.55 after tax. This system as configured likely has a retail value in Nigeria of about 180K

Hope that helps,

peace,

Brume

Andysim,

I'll holler back shortly.

Adewale Afolabi, thanks for your kind words. appreciate that.

peace,

Brume

Hey andysim,

If you provide me a detailed config of your required dv9500t I can certainly help you out with that

peace,

Brume

No I dont have a Dell for 100K.

I have 1 Dell inspiron but it is priced at 128K. I have 4 Toshibas for 99k each though. Care to consider any of those?. I am not sure if they are still available though. If you want a Tosh holler me and I will check to see if they are still available or not.
