Hey guys, i plan to get a sony vaio lap top before this christmas.
My budget is 5k{maximun} including extended warranty.
i will be using my lap top for music, watching some music video,dvd"s, playing a bit of games,surfing the net and doing some school projects.
I was considering going for the vaio fw55 which is rm4499 and an additional rm430 for extended warranty.
is the specs in this lap top good ?
are there any other models that you"ll recommend me that is within 5k?
by the way, i heard that the older models of the sony vaio had some problems,example- problems with the lcd and the hard drive{making some loud noise},and some models encounted overheating problems. Does this still happen to the new models now ?
is it worth buying sony vaio lap tops ?
i dont want to regreat after buying it.
I really nedd your opinions.

thanks........

Shankar_dass93, i think u only read this thread bout those problem you've HEARD..so plis, dun say it like sony vaio giving lots of problem..i dun have any with mine...if sony vaio giving lots of problem, i dun think Acer or compaq will give less..i can assure u as i'm a technician myself...no hard feelings

anyway, FW55 is quite nice..got a nice spec unless u can't cope with the giant screen.
its all bout your luck & evrything u buy wont last forever......

Hey bro, i just wanted to know weather was it true,because i dont want to get a lap top and then start regrating.

Hmm... No regret of it lor.

I'm using a FW590 from US, spec almost the same as urs, juz I got upgrade BluRay combo ROM & extended 7200Mah battery, the rest almost the same like urs!

So far so good! Everyone is so envious at my VAIO.

Self usage-wise, everything works juz fine! No noise, no lag, no malfunction, no heat issue.

I can play latest game DragonAge: Origins at highest setting, projected to my 42" tv using HDMI at no prob at all.
It gets heat at the fan area during gaming, but as soon as I end the game & continue for other purpose, the heat gone in a split second. I'm convince it has a very good heat dissipation system!

What do u expect? U're looking for a 3 yrs warranty, so dun back down. Give all out!

When u're talking about the FW series, so many satisfied owner here, u dun have to afraid!

Dun worry!!!
*
ok bro.thanks for your opinion,i was just quiet worried.

I got exactly the same situation as u... I posted here for quite some times, but seems no one can solve that for me.

It seems not every Wins7 encounter this.

At least miyabi is not facing such prob as I concern. So can't help us here...

Alwiz pop out!

When I left my MSN there, it's pop with MSN running behind.

If I manual close the MSN b4 shutting down, it oso pop out with no program running behind, as I shown in screenshot earlier.

See... Nothing's there to be forced shut down~

i guess you should call up sony

well, i'm using Windows 7 Ultimate 32Bit now..gonna upgrade to 64Bit once i can get a hold of it...I'm using Ultimate cos i dun wan any restiction or lack of function which i MAY encounter one day..so far i'm using Ultimate, no trouble or problem that i encountered...just hav to get used to win7 from XP Pro conversion..that's all..

if sony gave u other version than Ultimate, use it unless u r realli realli not satisfy with it..me? i'm different story..Windows XP, i started with XP Pro since day1 and even same to win7 as i'm started with Ultimate version..

but frankly, Ultimate version do hav lots more function than any other version of win7..
