Duration of ownership: 3 Months
Strengths: Bright screen, thin & light, nearly fully loaded
Weaknesses:expensive
Overall Evaluation: This notebook from Sony is lightweight and powerful. It is loaded with 1.83 Due Core, 1 GB ram, double layer DVD burner, 5400rpm hard drive, webcam, fingerprint reader, wireless a/b/g, and two video systems, all in a compact package. Have upgraded the ram to 2GB PC2-5300 running at the same system bus speed. It takes less time to boot up. The notebook is preloaded with many applications, and quite a few are almost duplicate. On Sony's website there are instructions for you want to do clean installation of Windows XP. The two-tune color is very stylish. The feel of the keyboard is different. This computer has been working very well for the last three months, although the battery does not seem to hold its charge if the computer is not used for several days. Hope it is not battery problem.

Strengths: perfect balance between performance and portability
Weaknesses:expensive
Overall Evaluation: This laptop is just right in everything. Excellent choice if you are looking for a balance in performance and portability. If you want more power, just turn on the dedicated video card, and if you want more battery life, just use the integrated video card. Beautiful appearance also!

Duration of ownership: 2 Months
Strengths: Fast and light, 100GB 5400RPM HD, double layer DVD burner, in-build web cam, full size keyboard
Weaknesses:Battery life is not very good
Overall Evaluation: I should say it's one of the best laptop out there. It's very beautiful, with a 13.3 inch screen, not very big nor is it very small. Light and fast that I'd like to carry it everywhere I go. It comes with 1GB RAM, enough for day to day work. Pretty easy to use, the only thing that I complain about is the battery life. It's not even close to the rated life battery life. The other thing you have to pay attention is if you want to install a new windows XP professional instead of the home edition that it comes with, you have to download all drivers and know exactly which order to install the drivers. Still I like it very much and would recommend it to anyone!

Duration of ownership: 1 Months
Strengths: Lots of extras
Weaknesses:None
Overall Evaluation: I love the integrated webcam with build in microphone because you do not need to carry a webcam and microphone.This laptop has dedicated NVIDIA GeForce Go 7400 video card which is perfect if you use programs that requires a good video card.Also it is powerful enough to meet your expectations for sure. I just upgraded the ram from 1GB to 2GB. 100GB hard drive is more than enough to store your files.In summary, I love this laptop and recommend it.
