my last laptop weighed over 5kg.. was CRAZY.

now i bought a sony vaio sz, 2gb memory, core duo 2.16 processor (upgradable to core2 duo 2.33 might do it later when chips get cheap). and its faster than my desktop (3.6ghz p4).. by a lot. and weighs only 1.69kg.

I have Sony Vaio. I like it very much. But yesterday was checking the viruses....OMG.
Of course it has nothing to do with Sony. The note is great!

Other than that, they're gold.

I too changed over to using laptops, i still use 1 desktop, in my office. But what finally got me into the laptops is the wifi capability, every airport, hotel, coffee shop has free wifi access. Most of NYC and Vancouver have a free wifi signal, allmost everywhere in the city. I have a new Dell and it picks up wifi signals easy, however i have a friend with the new Apple ibook and found the wifi pick-up on it was weak.

Nice laptop indeed
specs are good enough for normal usage i'd think

I also switched from desktop to laptop several years ago.
I've been thinking about getting a new one, but it's not really easy
3 years ago I bought a very high-end DELL laptop, was almost 4K (don't know what i smoked that day LOL, never gonna spend that much on a laptop again)
still doing a good job, but the battery only lasts for like 15 minutes anymore, and the hinges of the screen broke (pretty common with dell i've read)
Not gonna spend money on replacing those parts.

I love the look of those VAIO ones
but the cheap ones have a "slow" harddrive 4200rpm
the more i see what i like, the higher the price gets
