Brand reliability, All in one value for money
Pros: Display has a crystal feel, RAM and CPU, Price
Cons: Adapter looks like a brick, Sound card is nice but not as loud as HP
Display is classy. A definite eye catcher for anyone. Great resolution for watching movies. Better than even the costly plasma screens.
1GB RAM and 3.2Ghz does all the crunching you could ever want from a desktop.
The fans make a bit more noise than I would have wanted but hey the unit remains very cool ever after running for several hours.
Buy this machine at $1400-$1500. Look over the net and you will find that reputed places are offering deals. Save money on this one and treat yourself for the good choice.

Very good machine, a bit pricey, great style, should have come with XP Pro. Don't pay more than 1600
Pros: DVD+/-RW, 1GB RAM, Beautiful graphics w/ XBRITE.
Cons: No XP Professional for OS. XP Home Edition is an ebarrassment to a machine this expensive. Battery life is also insufficient. Incluced software is Sony rich mainstream poor. Memory Stick slot should have been Multimedia card slot.

Fan NEVER turns off
Pros: Good value $1649 at Costco
Cons: This fan NEVER turns off, I mean literally. The fan is continuously running (at various speeds) and is somewhat annoying. I am thinking of returnig this thing because I can't imagine it is supposed to be this way.
