What a disappointment!!!
By D Takumi H
This is the first one-star review I have ever written. I have been living with this laptop for awhile now with increasing disappointment in this product. I do not recommend this product to any one looking to purchase a laptop.The Good: Good size and weight (bezel could be thinner though). Nice keyboard with backlight. The optional sheet battery works well and extends the running time a lot vs. the added weight. 1200X1600 internal display is relatively sharp. Like the mechanical switch for turning on / off the WIFI / Bluetooth.The Bad: Our office has two identical Sony laptops and the following issues are the same on both: The biometric reader stopped working shortly after purchase. The biometric software regularly crashes any Internet browser. The discrete graphics require the noisy fan to run most of the time. I've given up and run the laptop exclusively on the integrated graphics setting. Any external display connected to the laptop is not clear, and in addition what looks like RF interference occurs for the first 30 minutes even with RF shielding precautions. Two external displays cannot be driven with this laptop even with the discrete graphics. Plugging in a speaker interferes with the CD player tray depending on the type of jack used. Using the page up / page down / home / end keys require two hands since the FN key is 'way across the keyboard (to be fair, some other laptops have this problem.)Don't know if this is a Windows 7 issue or a Sony issue, but opening many files, the default window top is past the display requiring me to resize windows manually to access the window menu bar. Lastly the built-in speakers are crap. My cheap mono Dell laptop internal speakers blows away this laptop's speaker quality.We both got the overpriced ($199) port replicator which does not drive two external monitors (!), does not have DVI (!!), does not have a audio pass through plug (!!!) and the USB 3.0 port is blocked by the port replicator (!!!!) What a waste of money!BTW, the office just purchased a Toshiba DynaDock for me and it has allowed me to drive sharp DVI and HDMI displays, allows two external monitors to be driven at the same time, has stereo and 5.1 audio jacks, Ethernet jack, USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports and plugs through the USB 3.0 port on the laptop. Pretty compact. Costs $140 on Amazon. Has made life with the Sony laptop a little more tolerable.Update: It's 3 months later and I've learned to live with my Sony laptop. It's tolerable mostly because of the DynaDock. What a great product that Dynadock is! As for the laptop, the Sony's light weight and decently-sized AC power supply is great when I travel helps. On the other hand, the display's very small viewing angle gets frustrating....

Big disappointment
By Paul
Well built, nice high res. screen though back-lighting shows through from the bottom, great keyboard.But that's about it.Horrible lagging touch pad, incredibly slow giving the specs - Macbook Pro feels 5 times faster though has slower processor.Windows 7 just feels a century old, clunky, unintuitive, slow comparing to Mac OSX.My advice - try a Mac first, you will never want to come back to this PC junk.
