Lap Top prices ...
-
Just wanna to know ...
My Filipino friend wanted to buy a lap-top for his 6 year-old son ....
He wanted a really budget ones , he doesn't mind a AMD processor cos he heard AMD processor real low price in Spore , in Filipine would cost them a bomb .
How much is the lowest u guys know about ?
I told him $699 can buy a Prestigio one .
Is there anything lower price than that u know of ?
or anything which is slightly more expensive , like $800 for a better brand ?
Any suggestion ?

He wants to buy it in Philippines or SG?
If in Philippines, I can't help. I'm not sure of the market there.

Since it's for a 6 year old kid,
You could go for the Asus EEE 900 with the windows xp option: damage <$800 ( an upgraded version of the original eee with better specs and quality and performance

Though, do try to tell him, that he could get a somewhat "good" Pc for $800.
I do not think a small kid @ 6 years old will properly utilise a high end spec laptop.

In S'pore . He'll be here for a few weeks . -
Geez,
6 yr old kid with a laptop. For starters, It is wise for him to look for a 2nd hand EEEpc running on winXP.

erm... 6 year old need laptop for what? Get a gameboy instead...
-
dun misunderstand , he's the one to use it as well , just that at the same time , he can train his son to use , and can download games as well .

Maybe he can take a look at Dell Vostro 1000. Buy online at $949. Can choose to get Windows XP instead of Vista, which is a plus point for budget laptops as budget laptops usually do not have good hardwares to run Vista smoothly.

not likely he want to spend so much ....u know , Filipinos not really rich , $1000 for them is alot of money .$700 for them = about Pesos 22000 .
For a decent family of four , can eat 2 months .... I am not joking .
A indoor salesperson in Filipines , earns about $100 a month , good one maximum $300 .

Well, the best, but most expensive one would be the $999.
HP mininote.

-
btw i got it for $760.. most places selling at $798...
