Bionic and CyprusLaptops don’t seem to be stocking this model… so I can’t get it for you at a better price! :)


Technica is just your average computer shop. The owner is an ok guy but don't expect too much tech support if you need it. Here’s the important part…


Drivers for Vista AND XP so you’re lucky!

gonna go there and if its a warehouse then stay far away from them wouldent trust them.. ty

What is it you need?


well they have a lap top i really like but i dont know if i can trust this company they say they dont accept credit cards and take money on delivery so i think they might sell me crap and i lose 800 euros for nothing.. i rang just now and techinca line answerd and no one answerd the line even though they close at 6 and i rang at 5:30 but have you tried to buy from this company before Get real?

http://www.laptopexpress.com.cy/cyprus/ ... details/38 very good lap top for so cheap or am i behind times and that is now old lol


Money on delivery means you will pay them when they give the Laptop. So they will deliver it to your home, you will open the box and check that everything is OK and THEN you will pay them. Something like pizza delivery. If it is not ok you just don't accept to take the Laptop and you don't pay them. So you don't risk loosing money. The only thing you risk if they are not a good company is the warranty. .

Sotos: ty i think i will just do that its definatly a good lap top, it was just the fact the company wont accept credit cards i thought it sounded a bit weird for a company to not accept cards.

Probably it is a small company and they want to see how their online shop is doing before investing in online payments.

I gotta tell you though that when it comes to laptop repair/support brand-wise it looks something like this...

1. IBM
2. HP
3. Acer (beware regional warrantees)
4. Toshiba
........
?. Sony (<--junk)

what lap top would you advise? something with attached webcam microphone bluetooth wireless best graphics card 4GB ram at least 350GB hard drive ive looked on google for hours and thats the best i can find Intel Core 2 Duo .. you get the idea something good that will last a long time for around 830 euros

Sony make great TVs and DVD players but not computers.

IBM are in a league of their own. You could be looking for a tiny little screw gone missing from a 20 year old laptop, and lo and behold they’ve still got the part and out to you in a month! :lol:

IBM online tech support is powerful stuff…. online warranty checking, always answer emails, constant new releases of updated drivers and BIOSses, exploded-view parts-charts of every model available, all available to the public unlike the rest where you have to be a tech of a “partner” to access the technical areas, etc. HP is not too far behind and offer great looks with most of their models whereas IBM’s are usually ugly but sturdy and well put together.

With Toshiba and below, after 2-3 years there’s no parts left they’ll tell you! They just don’t care about older models other than selling new ones. Mind you, some parts aren’t worth purchasing anyway, like motherboards and screens, because of the ridiculous prices they all charge for them.

But anyway, IBM kicks arse…

As for recommending you a model… every month price lists get updated with new models arriving from every brand so I’d have to go through many pages of data and I can’t be bothered… sorry.
