Item : B001FB6T9E Customer Reviews OH GOD!!! the Best by .. pva (Chicago, IL USA) It is so coooll... the moment i opened the box, i fell in love with this piece.. so trendy, light weight, slim, yet solid frame and body... Performance was better that i expected... Vista comes with 64 bit IE and 32 Bit IE. which is quite useful, as OWA demands 64 bit IE on 64 bit Processor.. Video clarity is amazing... check out few orginal HD videos in youtube.. u will go mad... sound quality is good, but can be made better... I am 101% happy with my purchase Great Computer, but pricy... by .. Zi Zheng () I bought this computer 10 days ago for 1160, and now it's only 1016. There is almost 150 different within 10 days. I don't know why there is such a price drop. However, it's a great computer, solid body, comfortable keyboard, light wight. Buy it when it goes cheaper> GREAT LAPTOP, with a minor flaw by .. S. San (Los Angeles, CA) About 2 months ago I purchase the VGN-SR220 for a sales rep. I was very impressed with with the speed, weight, and price. The only thing with the SR220, was that it had Vista Premium which can not connect to a Windows Domain, which was a minor issue that I was able to resolve. A month later the President of the company broke his laptop and I got the SR240 and was happy that the SR240 had the Vista Business which can connect to the domain. I paid about an extra $100 for the SR240 than the SR220, but it was worth it because the processor was a little faster and it had the XP Pro downgrade, which you would need to request. My only gripe about this laptop is that it does not come with a restore cd or a Windows setup disc. So if you need to restore or reformat the computer, you are out of luck. The salesman keep telling me that I can just back up the data when I first use it. I spend an extra $60 for Acronis Tru Image to back up my system. I think that if a customer is going to spend over $1000 for a decent laptop, Sony should at least provide a restore cd or something. Other than that I think the laptop is great especially there are many accessories including the extended battery. 13.3 inch Sony laptop by .. T. White (Tallahassee, FL) I researched for months before finally purchasing this Sony computer. Besides reading reviews, I also went to several stores and put hands on many computers. I have been extremely pleased with this computer. I work off a Linksys Wireless G modem/router with Comcast highspeed internet with no problems. I have also traveled with this computer and have been able to easily connect to several different wireless systems. The colors on the screen are beautiful. The keyboard is great. The computer is lightweight. Set up was easy and it was also easy to delete the unwanted addware. I purchased Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 and it downloaded without a hitch. I am sure there are other good laptops out there for less money, but I have been extremely pleased with this Sony. I highly recommend this laptop to anyone looking for a lightweight, easy to use computer. I am not a gamer, so I can not comment on the use of this computer with games. Okay laptop - little bit of issues by .. J. Hutsko (Glendale, AZ United States) I bought this at a great deal based on all of the positive reviews I heard for this model. It starts up good, but I have found right out of the box that the internet stutters on it. I just returned an HP laptop that had no internet issues on it. The other thing is that the speakers are only 1/2 the volume on the HP laptop that I just returned. Sony could have spent a little more money on putting in a better quality sound card so that I could actually hear what I'm watching - I live alone and have a quiet house, and with the volume turned up all the way, I still think it's too low. Again, comparing to the HP laptop I returned (because there was a defective part with the sound card drivers / sound card - even though it played really loud). As far as the internet glitch and stuttering, I was watching downloaded / streamed video from www.fancast.com - everything I watched on the HP was great. Battery life is fairly good on this model, as when fully charged, it will get about 2-1/2 hours of life out of it. The HP, I was lucky to get 1-3/4 hours. So far I would recommend this if you are just looking to surf the internet and do some minor business productivity work on it. I will need to go back and check how this works with headphones - see if I can get the volume loud enough through them. If not, I may be returning this laptop as well, and continue searching for another one.
