thanx..it's my first vaio, my first lappy and first time using vista. anything essential i need to do?how about the warranty? the shop says need to wait for 7 days for any prob so can replace one-to-one. if everything okay then register at sony's website. is it a normal procedure?

QUOTE(davidmak @ Sep 30 2008, 10:59 PM) You will soon find that the Core 2 Duo P8400 is actually very cool. In fact, its cooler than the T8400 on the CR which I thought if pretty damn good. yeah, it's quite cool. i've used cooler pad and i dont feel much heat even after 4++hr use non-stop (while surfing and movie watching) in a non-aircond condition. i think if i continuously using cooler pad every time then no need to worry about overheating. not very sure if using outside especially when outdoor starbucking.. |

QUOTE(bitterbutter @ Oct 12 2008, 03:35 AM) As for resolution i think it's the same between UK& M'sia, max 1600*900, aspect ratio 16:9. DDR3 graphic? I'm not sure, it's not even mentioned inside the UK's website, wait until I got my hand on the machine this monday, then I'll share with you my 1st experience. it's the same. my fw12g has max resolution 1600*900 aspect ratio 16:9, but still haven't found any dvd movie on my collection that genuinely can take the whole full screen. There is still at least an inch of the letterbox. let us know when u received ur fw, then can compare with m'sian version..my fw working great and i love it so much! |

love the sr series..nice sexy looks and feels..it's kinda like fw resized for mobility. even the lid cover design is similar to fw. but it's pity sr12 doesn't come with gpu and one have to add another 1k but for the upgrade to sr13. but i wonder why they bundle sr13 with vista business when clearly sony themselves categorize sr series for home use..?
