azza08: Do you think is possable to return such Item to Harvey Normans after only 2 days of ownership if paid via Qcard


It doesn't really matter how you paid for it.  If you still have the retail box and it is resalable, they may give you store credit, at best. 
HN, from my experience, do not give 7-day change of mind refunds like Noel Leeming, Dick Smith, etc.

Anyway, coming back to the topic, tell us all about the notebook if you get it tomorrow!

It's been 18 days since the first post and finally (hopefully) someone will have their hands on this notebook!  Haha.

I would definitely like to know what the gaming performance is like!

azza08: Its an ATI Radeon Sapphire X1650 pro at $399.00 and it turns out a site called Computer Lounge ( www.computerlounge.co.nz ) has the same card but for half the price and more memory. (One I paid for is 256Mb and this one 512Mb) Man Im such a sucker!!


Mate, im sorry but... shop around!

trust me on this, theres a reason why my dads computer is only half of the price if he went someone other than where he went to.

Do they have more stock in the Wairau Park store?

Hmmm, give us your overall impression of this notebook. Does it run quietly? Good quality? Etc.

Oh, does it come with a recovery DVD?

Vista Ultimate is installed on this PC.
Its a bit thicker than a P100 but I think its about the same weight as the P100.
The cdrom drive sounds a bit weird when it is reading, maybe something to do with hd dvd drive? Not sure how to describe the sound.

The cords and stuff are all over on the left side of the notebook which is a bit weird and the power cable looks like a ps/2 plug. The powerpack is huge too.

It comes with a Norton trial I think, it was on the desktop but I did not use it as I have TrendMicro already. Already deleted Norton.

Haven't installed any games yet still updating antivirus and installing more important stuff like msoffice. Have assignments due this Friday which I haven't even started lol.

The wallpaper in my background is from the anime Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion.

edit: it doesn't come with recovery dvd, you have to create them.
