My parents are giving me a laptop for college, and i can't decide which one to get. maybe i can see your opinions here then i can decide. These are my choices the Sony Vaio PCGGRX570 or the Toshiba Satelite 5105S607.

Features of the Sony Vaio
A 1.6GHz Intel Pentium 4 processor, 512MB DDR SDRAM memory, and 40GB hard drive, 16.1” UXGA screen, 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet port and V.90 modem, and combo CD-RW/DVD drive

Features of the Toshiba Satelite
combo CD-RW/DVD drive, 10/100 Ethernet port, 40GB hard drive, 512MB memory and ultra-fast 1.7GHz Intel® Pentium® 4 processor, 15” UXGA display, and nVidia GeForce4 440 Go graphics card.

Hey,


Personally, I think a Sony Laptop kicks booty :D



However, the statistics show here that the Toshiba has greater features than the Sony Laptop.

My gut feeling will go with a Sony, they never failed me :tup:

Plus they look cooler too!, in college ain't that what really matters,lol :p

Hey, I like the way you put the register marks besides the Intel and Pentium words. How did you do that? LOL, really want to know :D

Thanks,

cool, how did u know it was Alt+0174, do u have a book on all that. yeah i guess i will decide to go with the sony laptop then. i was gonna go with the toshiba though. but after all the support for Sony®, i'm going with them. I also hear that they have a Sony one at 1.7mhz for $3000. i guess i'll squeeze the dough out of my parents.
