Hi R,

Thank you.

What did you mean please by "Your link is scanry on the paypal and more"?

Could you please recommend on a trusty online seller?
(I actually thought of buying it in Munich if you know a good seller there (: )

About the fans noise and keyboard issues, are you aware of such problems?

Thank you very much.

Sorry

I don't know sellers in that country. You must do your work on that.

As to keyboards, there are computer stores in Munich (a buddy was on vacation there last year) so you find this model or its line and try it out. If you don't like fan noise then no model with fans will be acceptable. Fans are a fact of life for this class machine for now.

Hi R Proffit,

I thank you again mate.

Would it be trusty to buy that Laptop from Amazon?

Are they considered a trusty seller as far as Laptops are concerned?

Thank you, and thanks for sharing the Amazon link.

I wonder.

Amazon is doing fine in almost every country. Trust is a personal thing but payment by say Western Union is a bad sign. Paypal, not so bad but as a primary payment method reeks of a private seller where a lot of stories start. Not that I don't buy from eBay and the like but laptops? Sorry, no, I'm back in stores to look over the wares and then shopping there or Amazon, Newegg, etc.
