(More customer reviews)i bought this laptop at fry's during a 1 day sale for 699.99 and is normally an [...] laptop. the specs are solid across the board with windows seven pre-installed and works perfectly for a laptop, the spacing of the keys are very nicely placed so that you won't trip over typing each letter as well as virtually a finger print free plastic casing it comes in unlike an hp where it's a high gloss, metallic finish and will get tons of fingerprints. the speed is 2.20 ghz and an intel core 2 duo processor so you are getting very decent to above average speed (3/5 stars) for the money depending what you are using it for. it comes with a blu-ray play which i personally i wasn't too concerned about but unless again, you are using this more so for something other then a dependable and fast laptop and already have a ton of blu-rays. the 320 gb hd is more then enough memory for school projects and papers so you won't have a problem if you are using it for non computer graphical oriented classes for the software it needs if graphics design is your major. and lastly the video card is worth the investment, the ati 4700 mobility card is a 2009 issue and with it's dedicated 512 mb memory you won't have to worry about playing 95 percent of most games in the last year or games upcoming. sony offers a service like a lo-jack for laptops where for 15 dollars you will get a lifetime service for tracking your stolen or lost laptop so you can't go wrong with that just peel the tracking sticker off and put it on the bottom of your laptop and use the same number to go to [...] and you will have lifetime service.
the only gripes i really have which i'm knit picking is that it comes with a blu-ray but not a true 1080p it is 1366 x 768 so if you must have a laptop that plays blu-rays but not an absolute 1080p then this laptop won't have it but on a 15.5 inch screen it won't matter that much this feature is the last thing you should be concerned about as an educated consumer. the battery life says 4 hours but i have my brightness on high so i get about 2.45 to 3 hours, i upgraded to a 4400 mah, 11.1 volt battery so i will have about 6.
as a multi-functional school/multimedia/gaming laptop this gets a 10/10 if you pay less then retail, and an 8.5/10 if you pay full retail price only because if you do your research and find a spec on another laptop to your liking for the price like an led backlight display instead of the tft screen this comes with it would only be more of a minute detail, then you might go for that instead but either way you can't go wrong with any of the specs here. when you invest hard earned cash on something you want the best bang for your buck and invest not to upgrade so get a very worth while laptop because like all electronic devices most of the upgrades depending the quality you get won't matter they are more selling points.
