Buying a laptop in Asia Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

I might pass by Hong Kong at the end of this summer, and I wondered if there was a big difference in prices or if anyone knew "things to know" about buying in Asia like this. I wonder if it would mean to kiss support goodbye also...

I know someone from Hong Kong who got a 1.3GHz laptop for 2000$ or less... two years ago. I was also said that people from mainland China go to Hong Kong to buy their laptops to get better prices so...

But I checked the IBM ThinkPads on IBM website to compare and... sometimes it seems quite cheaper, sometimes the opposite. I don't get it and I wonder what's that.

Any info appreciated, thanks

Tired of ads?

I didn't notice any real difference in prices when I was there last year, but then I never left the airport.

Unless you plan to run the server off the new laptop, this is certainly in the wrong forum.
