Yes, and all were giving me heart attacks.
This one is no mistake.
i hope JB hifi will honor the deal. LOL. I called them this morning and they said they can make it at $537. I printed the webpage out. But not quite sure if they will make it now.
i rang some of the wa jb hifis and the cheapest laptops they had were $799+
love to know if anyone found some in WA
How do we get it ? its iphone covers at the moment, ahh finally updated title and link :)
Just wondering not for me , wouldnt touch cotd personally
it should be posted up at 12pm AEST today on catchoftheday.com, then just struggle through the hordes and get lucky to get on and it's yours
Whats the warranty offered on this?
2 years
asus has 2 yrs
considering the specs and the warranty. Actually it is not a bad deal
I was expecting a higher-spec laptop than this.
Considering the graphics card, it's good value.
That said, it's only useful for old games really.
Giving negative because of false advertising. Listed on CotD site saying it has a free upgrade to Windows 7 (by redemption) but when you go to the ASUS site, this model is not included in the free upgrade.
I wonder if CotD will honor their advertising and give all purchasers a free copy of Windows 7 themselves to avoid legal issues?
Nonsense, it is perfectly valid. The equivalent overseas model number is F5SR, as mentioned in the specifications. Just triple checked with Asus.
Note that ASUS charges $35 for 'free' Windows 7 upgrade if you live in Australia…
