    Wow, this laptop is thiner than I expected evener lighter than my N610c with 14' LCD. The monitor was dim but now so bring and clear after some setting. I didnt see any dead/bight so far. I am generally happy with it. ;)
    How can I check the dead spot? Any idea?

    By the way, is that possible to increase the video memory by using the main sys memory?

    You got another one? Aren't you selling one of these in another thread :D

    Anyhow, glad you like it. Let us know more about the screen quality and overall build/design quality.

    Cheers!

    HAHA, Actually I was selling this one for another gamer laptop. Well, I think I wont sell it anymore since I like the way it looks. The quility of it is very decent. Also, I want to play lesser games becuase I am too old to play too much games.=)
    About the LCD. I have WXGA and it looks alike/ a little bit better than my old laptop. Furthermore, upgrade from 14" and 15.4 is a big improvement and I am quite satisfy with the LCD.
    Still don't have time to open the advance docking station/ travel battery. May be I will just sell them after my finial finish.
