My new toy....

[Ryall]

I just bought my first laptop.... I've always been a tower lover in the past since they are easy to build and you can get lots of power for cheap. However I've always wanted to get a notebook so I can be more mobile, and it is everything I thought and more - now I have my tower setup in my room and my notebook to take anywhere I go, with a firewire connection between them it is like having a cloned computer = SWEET.

Anyway, I got a SONY VAIO... 2.7 GHZ, 512 Meg RAM (upgrading to 1024 Megs next week), 40 Gig Hard, 17" LCD, XP-Pro, etc., along with any extras you can think of.... I must say I am impressed with SONY right now. Comments?

Peace

The notebook, plus a sweet backpack/case by Targus, optical USB wireless mouse by Targus, Norton Firewall & Virus software, and a 3 year warrenty upgrade it was around $1800.00 US - it is really great having it, I'm glad I finally got it! =)

Nice piece of hardware you got there ryall. Personally, i wouldn't use wireless, using that was one of the worst computer experiences of my life. Congrats.

mine is also around $1800.00 US, but with all the program licenses (ps7, flash mx, fireworks mx, dw mx, the works). I think it's mighty sweet too:

Pentium 4 2.8GHz 512Kbyte 2nd level cache, 400/533MHz FSB
512MB DDR SDRAM
60GB IDE HD
Combo DVD?CD-RW drive CD 24x / CD-R 24x / CD-RW 10x / DVD 8x
ATI MOBILITY RADEON 9000 64 bit , 4x AGP support, 46MB
15" SXGA+ TFT screen
5 USB 2.0 ports, 1x IEEE1394, 1x CRT
345mm x 282mm x 39mm
3.5 Kg

It's big enough to fit in my backpack, and it is a beast. ;)

[m]...where did you get your laptop...how could you get all that for only 1800? that is one sweet deal if everything is legit :)

If 410 students are in need of laptops the import-people are glad to cut something of the normal student price (that is low to begin with). But i could've made a calculating error, so it could be 2000 $.

Sony makes nice Laptops. Sounds nice! =)
