You know Marc, I really LOVE my eBox laptop. It’s relatively light, has a cool white ceramic casing (which is quite easy to clean), doesn’t get too hot, has some very good SPECS, and just cool to look at. Otherwise, you could also go get an iBook. Hmm, actually my laptop does look like an iBook.

Just head over to Cooltoyz so you can try then buy.

I am sooooooo loving my Sony Vaio with dual processors 1 gig of memory, 60 gig HD, biometric security, nVIDIA graphics card and lots more. Oh, did I mention it’s about 3 lbs?

joz/migs,

check out the Jolex Gets sa cooltoyz: http://www.cooltoyzph.com/viewitem.php?iid=218

Looks like the eBox eh.

Jozzua, the iBook is one intriguing choice. I’m not a Mac guy (sorry Anton) and not being able to play Civilization 4 on it is one major downside. It’s also probably way above the budget I have hehe

Migs, how are the prices? I have some friends coming over from the US so shipping won’t really be a problem.

Lee, I’ve seen a Sony Vaio up close and the biometric slide thing is one crazy feature! The 3 lbs is something that appeals heavily to me, coming from a Dell Inspiron 6000 :) I’ll go over the SonyStyle catalog now.

Hey Marc, that’s ironic because my previous laptop was also a Dell Inspiron 6000. The Vaio has as much or more power, it’s lighter and smaller too. Much easier to travel with and for blogging conferences.

Lee, ain’t that something :) at least you can relate with why I’m opting for a smaller, lighter piece :) Vaio seems to be outside the budget though…

Hi Yuga, yeah saw that JOLEX laptop. Actually I think this is exactly my eBox. Probably rebranded. Mas mura nga ang mga nsa cooltoyz e.

Yes, the Jolex, eBox, etc. all come from the same ODM.

Sony Vaio - no local support/warranty.

Cooltoyz brand new laptops are either ODM like the Jolex, or from local distributors. So buying in the US is still cheaper. The cheap Cooltoyz units are the used ones they refurbish.

Bossing! musta? 1500 usd is too much! you can buy a nice laptop here at china much cheaper with your price. Siguro yung sobra you can buy a nice laptop bag as well. :) regards to sharm

Get a Thinkpad!

Sorry, that’s the TP loyalist in me speaking. :P

Fujitsu is cool. Mine is 10 inch small and very light. Did you got a laptop already?

- Hi Migs! Just to clarify, we do not refurbish laptops.
The units sold refurbished are purchased from Dell and Toshiba as refurbished. Without the sticker of Dell and Toshiba stating item as refurbished units, units are sold as USED.
