    Pros: Looks amazing, 1900x1600 screen, lightweight,HDMI, Keyboard,Webcam

    Cons: Wifi is only B/G, 3 usb ports,Sony Bloatware, Speakers, Not really Sony quality, no slot loading DVDRW, horrible support

    Summary: I thought this was gonna be a great notebook, it turned out to an ok notebook. I've had Sony Viaos in the past and there build quality was great saddly this isnt, 3 gigs of ram on vista is still a little slow, My headphone port went out 17 days after I bought it so I had to send it back to Sony, and they told me I dropped it when its been sitting on my desk the whole time and they wanted to charge my $637 to replace the motherboard, I said no so they sent it back, and voided the warrenty so I opened it up just to find out the headphone part wasnt on the main motherboard, and all I had to do was solder it back in place, Bottem line is Sony does support there own products, so I'm getting an HP and just giving this away

    I'm not sure you're commenting on the right laptop. No Vaio FW models come with a 1900x1600 screen (they all have a 16:9 aspect ratio whereas 1900x1600 is not an aspect ratio used by anyone anywhere) and all of them come with 802.11A/B/G/draftN wifi. I agree with you about the slot load optical drive though, I didn't expect it to have one but I wish more manufacturers would include them.
