          I've got 2 they're really good, No laptop has a better screen than sony, never
          driver problems....everything you hook up to it just works.....the bad thing is
          they have a really shitty battery life......at least the standard battery you'll
          get with it when you buy it. I think it had juice for like half an hour

          Overall I love em and wouldn't trade them for another brand.

            my 3 year old vaio just had the lcd backlight go out on it. About 200 bucks, otherwise I would have just gotten a new one.

                  I had one and got rid of it. I worked ok but I like Toshibas and the Dells better. But hey that's my opinion..

                    Vaios are good laptops. Bit expensive though.

                      I just ordered one as my "travel" computer. I'll let you know how it turns out when it arrives.

                        I picked up a S460 about 3 months ago and LOVE it. Battery life is around 2-2.5 hours. Great monitor. Only complaint is that it does get HOT.

                          the only laptops that LOOK as good are Alienware, and those a kiddiehacker style laptops

                                    I have 2 old Vaio's that I retired. One had a fan that broke, and it was a bitch to replace and deal with support. I've had much better luck with my Dell, but I bought a good support plan with it too. Guy comes out to my house, fixes it.

                                    I really like the Toshiba Qosimo's. When I upgrade I'll probably get one of those.
