Sony Vaio is a great laptop.

I really love it. It is efficient. It's really easy to use and I love how everything works. I use it everyday for college and it gets everything I want done. I am using it right now and it is great. It's not expensive. I only paid about $699. It's definetly worth this price....

I am online all the time.  I even go to school online.  I needed a computer that would be able to keep up with all the graphics and needs for school and this computer does it.  I love how quickly it loads in the mornings.  This computer came with all the programs I really need.  Also, it is easy to upload whatever else is necessary.  My only problem, if it is a problem, is that the battery does not last for as long as I would like.  This is still an outstanding item and I am always on my computer now.

My family loves our new Sony Vaio.  It's so convenient to use and the wireless interent is fantastic. I love the feel of the keyboard and the light, white color of the laptop.  The screen is fantastic and clear.  The only problem we have so far is that the mouse wanders someitmes.  Other than that, we love it!!

This machine was a horrible experience.  I'm a professional consultant, and a client needed work on her machine.  It was loaded with Windows Vista Home Premium--delivered with only 1GB of RAM, and it was a *dog*.  Stupidly, mind-numbingly slow--then I found it can only be loaded with 2GB *maximum*.  There's literally no way to make it sing with Vista.  The only thing I can imagine is that Sony jumped on early specifications for Vista requirements from Microsoft and designed it to those inadequate requirements.  My opinion of Sony has been dropping as fast as the stock market, given their... review »

From taking the Sony out of the box I was happy.  Everything started up without problems which was made quite easy by the Viao support on my laptop.

The only thing bad was getting used to Window's Vista, but the tutorials are a great help.

Kudos to Sony for yet another great product!

I love my Sony Vaio!  I honestly haven't had any problems with it since I got it almost a year ago, and I use it a lot!  It's been dropped a few times and still hasn't failed me.  I love the quality and the features.  I'd recommend it to anyone.

The laptop is great and I have no complaints.  My only difficulty with it is Windows Vista which causes is to run quite slowly at times.   My machine came pre-loaded with Vista.  Otherwise it's great, easy to use and great value for the price.
