Hi

I am looking for some advice on a MSI laptop from komplett.ie.
Here is the link:
http://www.komplett.ie/Komplett/product/ZKB_02PC/02_NOTEBOO/05_NOTEBOO/productdetails/20001711/MSI_CX620_017NL_Core_i5_430M__2_26_GHz_%28_2_53/CX620_017NL/default.aspx

It is a bit out of my budget but it seems to me to be a really good deal.
I will be using the laptop mostly for collage and maybe a few games....
I also will want to run a VM on the laptop and I think it should be well able to handle all that.

So I am just wondering if ye guys can tell me if ye think its a good buy or not?
What kind of reputation have MSI?
What kind of reputation have Komplett?

Thanks

MSI are mostly known for making good motherboards so can't comment on laptops
Komplett have been very reliable and cheap for the Irish market for years but some people have been having problems lately, but i ordered off them last week with no problems

Komplett are fine as long as they have the item in stock and you don't have to return it.

Also worth checking with, Ryan the komplett rep on here as to whether it is actually in stock, as the website doesn't have live stock updates at the moment (i found out to my detriment) its being updated manually.

It would be a lot of money to be waiting a month or more to be refunded (they charge when you order, not when it is shipped)
