hong kong.........
i have been to many places in asia and i can honestly say that it was the most foul horrid nasty place i have ever been too, i could write a book on how much i hate hong kong!.
taiwan is the cheapest for components, monitors and laptops by far.
they got the new sony viao (i dont recommend it as its expensive for the spec and well its sony) comes with a 1.66ghz duo core 2gb ram and all the usual stuff in a snazy case which come in 4 colours, weighs naff all and costs just under 600.
the same laptop in uk (which we dont get) would be about 1000.
oh did i mention that the taiwanese made stuff is much higher quality and they tend to avoid selling chinese made products unless its mega cheap.
dont wanna come across as a taiwan fan boy but i absolutely love it over here, the people are lovely, living costs are cheap and they have beutifull country side (when you get out of the citys).
will give you some pics when i take them, my camera is a big ass slr and i dont bother lumping it around
