With high contrast and 1366x768 pixel resolution, pictures are sharp and finely detailed. Auto Luminance Control automatically adjusts screen brightness depending on the environment – this saves you having to change screen settings manually while using the notebook in dark rooms or on overnight flights. Enhanced scratch resistance protects the screen from accidental damage while you’re out and about.

Tune up your VAIO to keep it working in top condition, identify conflicts and even recover data when your VAIO won’t boot up.

I have had no problems at all so far, using it for everything from viewing video files to creating documents
If only my Internet was good enough to allow this to work to its potential it would be perfect
The graphics are very good but I'm not a gamer. Surfing is quick especially using google chrome and Firefox.
Recommend to all.
The main issue I have is with IE9. I could not get hotmail or certain pages running (even Vaio security updates), and the downloading wasn't working either. Having spoken to my IT department It turns out that IE9 is full of faults and is basically pants. For a start, the pc is set up to run IE9 64-bit version, which I'm told is not a good idea because there's no support for this when browsing the internet. If you find trouble with IE9, you can try going with Mozilla (or, heaven forbid, Google!) but you won't be able to do it from the website because IE9 will not display the download button! I think you can find Mozilla in your control panel/programs section as I did it there. Hope that makes sense or you don't come across the issues that I have had in this area.
It's also comes with a 2 year gaurantee.
Update - Just short of 5 months later:
Ha So much for the two year guarantee. It turns out that the computer touch pad has developed unsightly marks around the keyboard after just five months of only partial use. Surprise, surprise, after talking to some woman from Egypt I'm told it's not covered by the Sony extended warranty for faulty parts and equipment. They seem to think it's perfectly acceptable for a computer pad to wear out after such a time and actually demanded that I should pay myself to remove it! And don't even think about contacting Sony Centre directly as they just didn't give a toss either.
So in hindsight I made a massive mistake in buying Sony. When the chips are down (no pun intended), Sony Customer Services go AWOL and the company delivers a big F.U. to an ex customer. No wonder their sales are going down here for fun.
So don't get Sony unless you can afford to waste money on the thing. That's it for me, bye bye Sony.
