Just curious but would the dealer give you a discount if it didn't come
bundled without Windows XP?

-----Original Message-----Next week, I'm going to secure a personal loan (very affordable) from my bank. My purpose: Buy myself a new notebook. For the amount of P40t, I guess, I'll go for ECS A530. I already saw the model in one computer shop and I can say it rocks. The price (with Windows XP and floppy drive) is P37,000.00. With 1 year warranty, the gadget is 1GHZ and has 256MB memory, 40GB HD, DVDROM/CDRW combo, wireless LAN, 4 USB ports. My only complaint is that it does not have an infrared port.

I'm also an IBM Thinkpad fan. If I could buy that at around P40T, then I'll choose that option. Or, if you can recommend shops that sell Thinkpads at around P40T (refurbished?), please let me/us know. My preferred specs are: P3 or P4 or M, 256MB memory, DVDROM/CDRW combo, 40GB HD, wireless LAN, IR port, at least 2 USB ports, with or without a floppy drive.
