nVidia 7600 512MB Dedicated

dang

 

****.
its a very nice deal there danny.

however i thought it would be cheaper. Not that im complaining, just that its almost $1500USD.

my chances of gettingo ne decreased. Unless the barebones version comes out soon.

 

Don't expect the barebone very soon if Asus will eventually make it.

 

Well, perhaps the US will see a barebone version instead, as ASUS had wanted to seperate the US and Canadian markets - Canada will see tons of ENSEMBLE units, while the US will be more targeted towards barebones.

 

sorry if this has been asked and answered before, but will the a8jm also be available in Europe and will it be out the same time as when you guys are supossed to receive it in the US and Canada?

Thanks

 

Good news! I'm strongly considering getting one this summer! Have been watching the Asus notebooks for over a year now and my desktop is slowly becoming obsolete.

 

The barebone is not on schedule yet, if available , will be in both countries.

 

djpharoah waits patiently for the barebones version of the A8JM

 

great news Danny, same price as the acer 5672. The 7600go 512mb is deal maker for me, looking forward to getting this.thanks

 

I like the array of ports and connections but... 6.1 lbs for a 14.1" screen? ouch!

 

Its not 6.1lbs.
Its approximate weight is 5-5.5lbs.

 

This is for those who have may not seen it already.

Ok guys, thanks to someone on NBR for pointing out this website. this is a MUST see for all A8jm people. ALOT of pics plus the REAL WEIGHT is 5.56 lbs!!!! This is equal to the W3J!

THis laptop looks like a Sony laptop to me, nice and silver, sexy! I would say its on PAR with the looks of the W3J, and its alot cheaper!

This is a definate winner.

Thanks,

thanks for the link, mysticgolem.

A lot of people are misquoting the weight of the A8JM. Which will cause a lot of people to consider another laptop.The weight is perfect for a laptop packing an MXM video card.

 

Hey Dj, hope you can swing it and get one as you were looking fwd to it as much as me, and you kept the A8JM threads alive and going

 

Thanks for the linkage, MG...

WTF? The specs on the review site suggest it's a WXGA+ display? I'm confused again... if it does turn out to be WXGA+, I wants one...

 

Great price...i'm a canadian..i was wondering where is ur location in toronto?..and i'm bit dissapointed about this system using Windows Home instead of XP...if it were XP with that price tag..wou;d be perfect system..

 

Thanks. I am hoping that at the end of summer, after working, I have enough money left over from paying tuition etc to get one.

If not the A8JM maybe then its barebones brother.

 

They have 3 locations IIRC, one in Markham, one in North York....and I forget where the last one is. I've only been to the Markham one(Warden/Steeles) and it's fun playing with the models they have on display

 

thx man... Warden and Steeles isn't that far..i know where it is now heh.

 

Here you are:

I see that the milestone site says they're branching into USA in June or July. Would you also take preorders for customers from USA? I assume if you do, the price would be the equivalent for USD (~1500)?

 

I do receive e-mails from US consumers from time to time asking me to ship to US, including Asus, Acer and LG, before I always said no because of the hassle of crossing the boarder, if I can see more and more people with similiar ideas with you, I might consider to open the US office earlier, let me watch for another short peroid of time and decide.
