Sony is very competitive with feature and price. i7Core is fast enough to do video, gaming, and anything you through at it. I wish it has led screen for additional battery savings.
Beware of the Reflective Screen.

This laptop is very nice. The keyboard is very nice. Here is my breakdown on it:
Pros:
Very good build quality
Beautiful 1600x900 screen for watching HD content
Powerfull CPU
Very nice sound
Non glossy design (not a fingerprint magnet)
Plus everything else you already heard
!
Cons (Minus)
Screen reflection. If you are used to matte screen. This will drive you crazy. I am returning it, am going to use my T60 for some more time.
Wish it had fingerprint sensor
Delete key should be bigger
Laptop is great for PC replacement but too big for mobile use. I think my widescreen T60 was about the biggest you can go to have the best of both worlds
very good

About ENERGY STAR ENERGY STAR is a joint program of the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy helping
us all save money and protect the environment through energy efficient
products and practices.
Results are already adding up. Americans, with the help of ENERGY STAR,
saved enough energy in 2007 alone to avoid greenhouse gas emissions
equivalent to those from 27 million cars — all while saving $16 billion on
their utility bills.
ENERGY STAR
Qualified Products
Products in more than 50 categories are eligible for the ENERGY STAR. They
use less energy, save money, and help protect the environment. Ask for the
ENERGY STAR. Energy efficient choices can save families and
businesses about a third on their
energy bill with similar savings of greenhouse gas emissions, without
sacrificing features, style or comfort. ENERGY STAR helps you make the
energy efficient choice. If looking for new household products, look for ones that have
earned the ENERGY STAR. They meet strict energy efficiency guidelines
set by the EPA and US Department of Energy.
What Is A Cell? It's a
battery
Though technically a battery has multiple cells, we are accustomed to calling a
single energy cell a battery as well.
In
electronics, a battery or voltaic cell is a combination of many electrochemical
Galvanic cells of identical type to store chemical energy and to deliver it in
the form of electricity. The battery cells combine to produce more energy
(voltage or amps) than a cell by itself. When joined in this way, it is a
battery of cells. Almost all portable electronics use one or more cells -
rechargeable or disposable. The more cells, the more energy available -
meaning more hours of use usually.
In Notebook computers, the battery case usually
holds three or more cells. 3 Cell batteries tend to provide about 1-3
hours of use, depending on the energy needs of the Laptop. 6 cell (or
more) batteries provide much more energy, and many more hours of use. This
can be good or bad! More cells mean longer use, but more weight too!
So remember to always check for the number of
cells if specified, and choose the right configuration for your use.
Battery Trivia:
The invention of the first battery (known as a Voltaic pile) was in 1800 by
Alessandro Volta! The first known usage of the battery (as we know it
today) was in 1863 by the physician named Flora Bills.
What is Memory Stick PRO technology?
Memory Stick PRO is the evolution of the Memory Stick format. It offers increased capacity and increased transfer speed over the original Memory Stick media. The advanced technology, working with optimized Memory Stick PRO format-compatible devices, enables various new applications including real-time recording and playback of high-resolution moving images. Memory Stick Pro is compatible with selected Memory Stick Slots.
What is the difference between Memory Stick and Memory Stick Pro?
Memory Stick Pro has been developed as the evolution of the original Memory Stick technology and offers increased capacity and transfer speed. While both are the same size and weight, Memory Stick Pro offers new capabilities such as real-time recording and playback of high-resolution moving images. Capacity, transfer speeds, and other Memory Stick PRO media features vary by and are dependent upon the design of host hardware devices.
Will Memory Stick PRO media work in all Memory Stick compatible products?
Similar to the initial launch of the DVD platform, some existing Memory Stick compatible products do not have the capability to read Memory Stick PRO media. However, Memory Stick PRO compatible products will be optimized to read both Memory Stick (16MB, 32MB, 64MB, 128MB, 128MB x 2) and Memory Stick PRO media.
Are current Memory Stick media compatible with Memory Stick PRO products?
Yes, existing Memory Stick media will work in Memory Stick PRO compatible products.

Recovery Media
Most computer systems no longer include "Recovery Media" (Disks or CDs used to restore your computer system to it's factory shipped state). Many do not even include Operating System disks.
This is not specific to systems purchased from any one company, but now standard practice throughout the entire industry.
However, many manufacturers include software on the hard drive that creates recovery media for you. This allows burning your own set of recovery CDs or DVDs - all you need is the blank media.
Inclusion of such a recovery utility varies by manufacturer and model; not all manufactures and models include such a utility. For those that include such a utility we recommend you create your own set of recovery media after completing the Windows installation. In other words, right after you start using your PC!
If you fail to do this and encounter a difficulty in the future you may not be able to properly restore your computer.
Some manufacturers may have physical recovery media available separately for purchase; consult your owner’s manual support information section for additional information. Systems that do not come with a CD/DVD burner may still include Recovery Disks - please check the manufacturer's specs.
Contents of package may vary from those pictured and stated here,
due to changes in manufacturer's specifications or merchandising.
Please check the product information carefully, items not included
may no longer be required.
