Sony Vaio FX201 ... tailored to a different budget and featuring a specification appropriate to its target audience. But in spite of the variations, these models share basic characteristics that are important to all users: a powerful processor, a large-scale XGA resolution screen supported by a graphics chip offering the appropriate levels of performance, a number of connectivity and multimedia options that are complemented by an integral DVD or (in the case of the FX201) CD-ROM drive and, lastly, a range of supplied Sony software that enhances professional and personal use.

When designing and manufacturing VAIO Notebooks, Sony pays particular attention to the development of environmentally sound products. Today, VAIO Notebooks are easier to recycle, consume less energy and are produced from materials with the lowest possible impact to the environment. They are also packaged in boxes and protection cushions made from recycled carton and pulp mold. Continuing Sony's commitment to this area, the company is currently working towards eliminating halogenated flame-retardants, PVC and lead in solder from VAIO Notebooks.

It was a joy to use, quick, easily upgradeable, and I got on well with this unit for about 12 months. As did the other users... then the Sony Vaio experience went very wrong. One day, I opened up my laptop in front of a customer, to hear an awful "crack" noise, and the screen came away from the laptop - the hinge had busted. Bad luck for me, or so I thought, until over the coming 3 months, EVERY SINGLE vaio we had busted their hinges also (despite much lubricant being used on the rest after the first two had broke!). Being slightly over 1 year old, Sony kindly advised us that they were out of warranty, and would be repaired as follows: £80 for them to ...
