Dell Mini 9 + Maxis worth it?
This is just my personal opinion and I say nay. For a total or RM 2376 it is NOT worth it for me. Also take note that the Maxis broadband that is included is only for six (6) months. I’d rather buy the Dell Mini 9 separately at RM 1199. However it is currently out of stock in most shops. (Hmmm.. I smell a conspiracy theory here I think the Mini 9 is a perfect portable notebook for the patzer and even relatively strong club chess player. Recommended to upgrade the 8Gb SSD storage to 32 SSD which is around RM 300+ in PC shops. Then running MS Office, Chess Databases and Chess Engines should be no problem. Bootup is quite fast at 25 seconds to 40 seconds for Windows XP which is important for a netbook. Battery life is around 3 hours which is decent enough.

If you can buy the netbook at RM1199 then Maxis promotion is not worthy at all.
