Sony Vaio PCG GR414SK

even better, because you can connect the Vaio to your TV with a S-VHS cable supplied with it. Watching all your photo's on a big screen in the comfort of your lounge is excellent. The Sony Vaio is a superb multimedia all rounder. Just in terms of what it does as a reliable work horse is great, but when you discover all the other possibilities built into it, I don't think you could get a better setup this side of a portable Apple Mac. Like their slogan says - Go Create. ...
