thanx brother for this review
lujain , thank you ..!
ASUS have one model called “Ferrari” .. it cost around 14,000 SR , and it’s still considered as one of the greatest laptop.. so it’s not simple products
about 904HD, it’s fine and suitable for small work like internet surfing and small Business…
Thanks again for your comment ..
