Can recommend good laptop brands?
Although a bit pricey, it's quite lasting. I feel it's user friendly too.
Used to use Acer and Dell but after changing to apple's so far no regret.
Maybe can set a budget first, then from there shortlist a few brand or models for comparison?
MacBook is alright, but not within my budget.
If it's just DD using, then I opt for a mainstream brand for her.

why is there a difference, in treatment of 1.5 hours \"torture\" duration so long, with their head placed onto table top , to P6 Mainstream students ?MrsKiasu\" post_id=\"1940362\" time=\"1570541619\" user_id=\"43981:
why need to wait 1.5hr?
Cos invigilators need to count the scripts and it was alleged that GEP students can rest, and walk around, study in another assigned room. Apparently, mainstream students need to \"rest their heads on the tables\" , as what the school claimed. -

Pls read the comments section. Already have GEP kid and parents who clarified that both mainstream and GEP kids need to rest and keep quiet and waited for 1.5hrs. -

I decided to get one because I think its not safe if my child borrows my laptop to school on occasions for projects. Cos these days, everything is done online, means that i have to clear cache, check that no passwords autosave etc, be careful any saved credit cards etc.
I checked on the macbook, is too expensive and I indeed worry about theft or loss. I asked around and some people agree that a black laptop is less desirable than a silver macbook to steal for eg. My child is also quite careless.
I think I will just settle for lenovo as recommended by relative. But mainly because Macbook is expensive for us. Thing is my child cry foul and actually prefer mac book for just general use only so far.
The laptop is for my child to practise coding, edit videos, play 3D games (my business model laptop not ideal), do photoshop type editing and of course next time use in school for project and presentation, so I don't feel secure my laptop being used without my presence.
I will also try to get some kind of waterproof keyboard if possible, because I have personally experienced accidental water spill and then goodbye laptop....! so with kids you never know about their water bottles.
Will go to Funan tomorrow to have a look see at lenovo. -
There are 6 choices for Sec 1 posting. May I know if how does the choice order work for school to select their students?
Is it something like Primary school registration by phases? 1st choice has priority. Or all the 6 choices run by system at the same time?
