I bought my Sony Laptop around a year ago, for college. Its getting a little aged for me, so once the warranty is up I’l update it a bit. For now though, its a Sony VGN-FS660W: 1.73 GHz Pentium M 533MHz Nvidia Geforce Go 6200 1GB Ram 80GB hard drive DVD+RW Dual Layer, DVD-R Also only has three USB and a firewire port on the sides, none of the other ports that commonly come in the back of the laptop. Its got a memory card slot too, plus a nifty spot for inserting the cards from Sony Cameras, so no dealing with cables or anything. Came with way too many useless programs too. Thats all I know off the top of my head. Not bad for what I paid post-rebates, and is nice and not too heavy. Not light by any means, but good for carrying around. Its my baby! ---

I had an ancient vintage 1999 PC running Win98 that I’d been meaning to replace for a couple of years. A month ago I ran across a great discount on a Dell, and I thought that made it worth the risks of dealing with them. The new PC may not be top of the line, but it’s so much better than my old PC I’m sorry I waited so long to get a replacement.
