Advantages: picture quality and overall style

Disadvantages: windows vista

I have had this sony vaio for over a year now and it is been a great buy. I am really happy with everything and haven't had a single problem since i bought it. The only downside to the laptop was that it came with Windows Vista. I'm not a big fan and i find it very difficult to to access and play around with settings and the configuration of your laptop like you could with XP. The laptop looks very stylish and beautiful and i like the textured grey finish. I find the keyboard and mouse very easy to use. The mouse is a touchpad which is pretty standard these days. The touchpad is sensitive but very easy to use, unlike previous laptops where the touchpad gets confused and is cumbersome to use. The sound quality is good but as with most laptops the sound isn't quite loud enough to watch dvds. The quality of the picture is brilliant and the laptop can easily handle playing dvds and games without any hassle.
The battery life is pretty good but as time goes by the battery life is shortening. To get the best out of the battery, i keep the power on the poer save option when not plugged in. This is not the lightest laptop but as i use it around my home i haven't had any difficulties with the weight.
Overall i am really happy with this laptop and would recommend it to anyone who wants a reliable laptop for day to day use and gaming.

Summary: great buy and will meet easily all your day to day needs
