ok at first but beware,

This review is from: Sony VAIO NW20EF/S 15.5inch Laptop (T4300 3 GB RAM, 320 GB HDD, Windows 7 Home Premium) (Electronics)
For the first couple of days everything worked well but after I loaded a few things on it, the start up became much slower and the Web button, which worked fine, now works intermitently and I don't use it anymore. I raised this with Sony helpdesk and they were unhelpful in the extreme. Also, I can't load images from my CF card because I can't find a reader that is compatible with the 64-bit processors and the software supplied with my camera is not compatible with Windows 7. There is a pdf of the user manual on the hard drive but ironically, you are unlikely to find it until you have learnt how the computer works first.

This review is from: Sony VAIO NW20EF/S 15.5inch Laptop (T4300 3 GB RAM, 320 GB HDD, Windows 7 Home Premium) (Electronics)
Bought this after some tepid experiences with Toshiba laptops (6 years) and Acer (3 years). Wanted to try something new but an established brand. The laptop is everything I say in t he title: stylish, ergonomic, fast and fun to use.
I especially like... the keyboard, which is quite mac like and very responsive the shape and colour: nice lines the position of the fan: stops it from getting blocked by duvet touch pad: it is textured and feels easier to control than other laptops I have tried the poweroff button (used as standby for quick power offs and power ups) start up time is very short widescreen windows 7, which is a huge improvement in terms of multitasking Things I do not like: The touch pad buttons put up a lot of resistence to being pressed, and in general do not inspire me with much confidence Why do manufacturers clog up your brand new system with such crappy software? Did I really need microsoft works for example?
