Sony VAIO VPCEG33FX/B 14-Inch Laptop (Black)

I needed a new laptop after the hard drive on my 3 year old Dell laptop crashed a few months ago. Because I am a college student, I wanted a smaller computer to carry around campus or use comfortably outside of my room. The 14'' screen is a widescreen and is excellent for viewing pictures, videos, and movies. My old computer had a 15.5'' screen. I prefer a larger screen, but the bigger the screen, oftentimes, the heavier the laptop. This computer weighs about 5 lbs with the battery (without it, it is obviously much lighter), but it feels like it weighs much less. The keyboard is also a good size and the keys are not raised, so food, dust, and hair are less likely to get caught in the keyboard. I own this computer in black and the photos are true to real life. Orginally, I wanted this laptop in white, but decided against that because it would get dirty very quickly. The computer uses Windows 7. My old one had Vista, so I'm still getting used to Windows 7's new features. I've had this for almost a week and it is very easy to use.

PROS:

Screen size

Keyboard

Memory (4GB included. Very fast! I can listen to music, be on the Internet, and run other programs without the computer slowing down)

Hard Drive (640GB is more than enough space for me and the overall price is great.)

Weight

CONS:

The lid is not fingerprint proof. Even in black, fingerprints are still visble. Not a big deal to me.

The mouse is a little unrespnsive at times and the touchpad isn't very smooth. Not a deal breaker, however.

No recovery software included.

*Make sure to backup your files often on an external hard drive or CDs and make a recovery disc (instructions are provided). The computer does not have any discs containing the OS software or recovery information. *

I think this computer is really not that bad! Considering I bought mine at Best Buy for $320.00 and it runs very smooth! I to have issues with the mouse pad, but once I plug in my travel mouse which I prefer anyway everything is fine! I installed Norton 360 and have not had any issues with performance. Great laptop for the price considering most Sony's are astronomical. Thanks Sony for making a nice laptop at an affordable price.

I've had my laptop (pink) for about 5 months and its working great! I love the white keyboard which makes it so much easier to see the letters on the keyboard. I love the 14" size, I would never buy anything else. All in all I have had no bad issues with it.

A week after i had bought this laptop, it started to give me a hard time. It would slow down and freeze and I would have to restart it alot. I had to call Sony vaio Care a couple of times to fix it for me. So i did system restore and system recovery on it a few times. Even after all this, it would be okay for a while and then go back to its annoying ways. So i was basically going back and forth between the laptop giving me a hard time and me restarting it or calling Sony Vaio. If anyone purchases it, Good Luck with it.
