[raducracan]

Can you tell me some sites where i can buy a notebook like this , but cheaper...help plzzz

[advancedwarfighter07]

I think the power button is cheesy, geeky, and anoying. Who wants a bright green light glowing so big. There should be settings to turn that off.

Awesome sauce. I just picked this up at Best Buy today. Gotta wait till Christmas though. :( Can't wait!

[raybrizs]

Uhh--what does this guy mean, "plays pretty good movies"<--?

It has a flippin ATI 4650.

It can decode hd, and blu-ray movies

like it's nobody's business..

Your trippin big guy. :)

[Czoot]

everything this guy says about this laptop is pretty to him.

i got the fw series. i love it. but since it runs that ATI radeon graphics and that big screen, its not so great on bat life. (2-3 hours). however, its a great, sexy laptop. PS. price sux (1.1k) lol

[toonygamer2004]

I checked their website, and you can get it for $870 bucks with the same ATI GPU.

That price for a great CPU as well.

Freaken good price :)

Though, RAM runs on DDR2 :\

downside...

What's your opinion on the

Sony FW460J/T

[EpiDemic117]

i just ordered one with case. I will tell you how it is when i get it via ups.

[dorito818]

aight then. thx bro.

[EpiDemic117]

Just finally got it yesterday. Sorry if this response would of taken to long to get to you. But the bonus of one day having it lets me tell you a little more about it. Ok here it goes. Extremely sleek, elegant, quiet, and plays just about anything except processing intensive games and apps (crysis, maya, some other crazy stuff.) I would definatly recomend this laptop to anyone especially for the price. However it does have a few downsides. Battery life, lots of bloatware in first use.

[dorito818]

thats down.

[EpiDemic117]

I do still recommend this product. Its awesome. Although asus and Hp could supposedly give you a better deal on performance for the dollar. This one is a lot better to have because of its smarter design. The HP notebooks especially are made of cheap flimsy materials in which i did not like. This one has the looks and ruggedness + portability. Only thing you might have to worry about now and then are smudges.

The power button is also a nice feature. I would recommend new egg if you'd want one.

My model of this series is the VGN-FW463J/T. I sacrificed the option of the blu-ray drive for a 2.53GHz processor instead of a weaker 2.10GHz that the other models had. I think this one also has slightly better specs to on the performance spectrum. I also didn't feel as if i needed blu-ray since i get most of my HD movies off of torrents (pirate bay, mininova, .etc). Before looking at this one i was considering a 13" macbook pro. But due to the high price, this one kicked it out the ballpark.

[dorito818]

haha cool.

[jikofury]

how does it perform now? wat OS r u using? wat size of ram u got as well as how big is ur hard drive? lastly how much did u pay for it?

the fw is one of my top choices to get in 2 months time. i would sacrifice the blu-ray drive as well, dont think that i will have the need for it.. thx for ur input in advance.

[PinkSilverWolf]

how good does that do in Editing HD videos

[PianoScience]

"A Macbook look."

[EpiDemic117]
