Love this Laptop
By S. McGinnis
I am a PC guy, but I am also familiar with Macs. I love the Sony VAIO...this is my third one since 2001 and they are all still working great. This new one though is the best. My favorite aspects are the beautiful screen, Windows 7, and the Blu-ray player. I have used it for a couple weeks now, and it really is a laptop I just love to work on. The new graphical items in Windows 7 are awesome, which makes the user experience much more fun. The VAIO also comes with pre-installed software, but it's all stuff you want to keep on it--like the Sony audio/video applications. And again, I just can't stress enough how wonderful the screen is. My wife is a photographer, and she has taken some photos that just have that "so real" look to them on the screen...kind of like viewing a Blu-ray moview on a great TV. I am very pleased with this purchase.

Beautiful screen
By Aman
Pros:- Wide & bright screen, good enough to watch movies.- Fancy body design, looks beautiful.- Spaced keys, makes typing very comfortable.- good quality webcam/mic that works in low light and can track face movements.Cons:- Short Battery life.- Does not have the modem jack as it shows in the product description and the picture.- No backup OS DVD. Recovery partition on HDD.Overall a good desktop replacement.

Looks Beautiful, works great, but horrible battery life
By R. Paradkar
I read all the reviews and did not find a single one here that matches my experience so far. I've owned this for >1 year now so below are the pros & cons:Pros:- Looks beautiful- Excellent keyboard (can type very fast)- HDMI & Blu-Ray means I've not needed a blu-ray player so far.- Good screenCons:- Terrible battery life. If you don't play video/audio or stream from the internet you may get 2 hours from this otherwise 1.5 hours is max. The battery life indicator is totally off. It may start off showing that there is 4 hours of battery life available, but it will reduce that to 2 within a few minutes and then even less as you keep using it. YOU ALMOST ALWAYS WILL NEED A POWER SUPPLY NEARBY. I guarantee it.- Heavy. This thing is not light weight.- Lots of junk software loaded including some Sony software. Why can't they just provide the rest on a disc and let us choose to install it if we want. All VAIO software is junk. It cannot manage anything and hangs up and slows your machine down. Also uses up resources and reduces battery life. I suggest uninstalling all.- Placement of the 3 USB ports close to each others on the same side.In summary, I loved it when I ordered it and got it first, but now I'm ready to get rid of it for something that is lighter in weight and will have longer battery life. I am willing to compromise on looks!
