Advantages: lightweight, small, feature packed,

Disadvantages: ony has 512MB Ram

This laptop was given to me as a gift and came full equipped with Windows XP professional loaded onto it.

On the first start up the laptop took quite a long time to get everything registered (about 20Mins), and after we were able to login to the unit.

There is a finger print reader built in to it, which saves you having to type your username and pasword everytime you want to login.

It is very compact and very lightweight. It comes with 3 USB 2.0 ports, and 512MB ram.
I have upgraded this to 1.5Gb now and can say that is was childs' play. The extra GB only cost £20 including delivery from ebuyer.com.

The Multi format DVD RW drive is removable and can be replaced with a blank panel (provided) to allow you to get it even lighter or to put in another battery.

The screen features Sony's x-bright (i think thats what they call it) technology which allows you to see the screen even in sunlight. Perfect for sitting on the balcony drinking a beer surfing the internet (writing reveiws) on a warm summers night.

Summary: The Sony 195VP is a great business end laptop,packed full of features and speed for when you need it
