Price Value Excellence 
2008-06-28
Bought this laptop for my stepdaughter, who will be paying off student loans for the next 15 years. I couldn't believe the value for the price when I saw it on Amazon! She's extremely happy with the laptop, and I'm happy I could help (thanks to Amazon)

Very Pleased 2008-05-29
Both my parents have sworn by Sony Vaio laptops, and have had several over the years. I decided several years ago to purchase a Vaio desktop and was very pleased. Since my new business requires the use of a laptop I decided to give this one a go.
I have had the unit for about 6 hours, and I'm overall pleased with the unit. The screen is wonderful, very vibrant and big. The colors virtually pop out! It is also very easy to type on, the keys fit my medium sized hands nicely.
The downside of the unit is of course Windows Vista, it would be nice to be able to get an XP version. There was a lot of junk software installed, trials of Office, Norton 360, Scattered with AOL software, all sorts of junk which I guess is to be expected these days so if you don't need any of these items be prepared to spend a lot of time uninstalling.
The other downside is the max of 2 gig or ram -- the video card takes up up to 384 mb so you're left with 1.6 gig. They should allow you to go up to at least 4 gig which Vista can use effectively, check ou the tech sites because even several sales people were of the belief that Vista can't use more than 3.6. Check the tech sites, they will explain what will happen to the remaining .4 gig.
This is a preliminary review, if I have any issues (non Vista related) I will post a follow up, but honestly I must say I really like this laptop even with the issues addressed above.
Oh, I'm not an audiophile, but the sound seems fine to me. I like the fact that I can pop a disk in and play it without booting up the laptop, although I doubt that I'll get much use out of the feature. :)
The unknown audio?? 2008-05-27
I haven't bought this item yet, but I am strongly considering it. They go into great detail about all the neat stuff but mention nothing about audio, other than a headphone jack is available. I understand sleazy marketing types and that means that audio must be weak or non existent. I would like to have this clarified then I will purchase one. Any information would be appreciated. Thank you.

I am totally pleased with everything. I live in Hawaii and got my lap top in a few days. The price was right and I am totally satisfied with the Vaio.
