    what about the processor, and processor speed? not too much info on that

  3. Xavier says:

    The processor speed hasn't been confirmed. I believe it's 2.2GHz, but we still haven't confirmed this yet.

  4. karpup1 says:

    Does this or the one for $479 have a DVD burner?

  5. david says:

    its only a dual core..still weak..rather get a core 2 duo.

  6. Ravi says:

    Both of them have DVD burners

  7. Coros says:

    What about the graphics card?

  8. dana says:

    does anyone know if it has the screen where you can see your own reflection? and does anyone know if this one has the blu ray too? thanks!

    i'll see all you crazy people out there in the freezing cold friday morning!!!! :)

    • Xavier says:

      Sony VAIO notebooks do have glossy displays. You will be able to see your own reflection with the VAIO VGN-NW series turned off. When there are bright images on the display your reflection will be less noticeable. Glossy displays can be frustrating to use outdoors or if you sit near a window.

  9. jhdfjksdf says:

    not the same one

  10. aj says:

    any body know if it has a HDMI input

  11. Sony Lover says:

    I love Sony!!! My baby is 5 years old and still works beautifully, with original battery still holding a 15 minute charge. While my brother's non Sony was giving him problems in less than a year. His battery die 9 months and holds only 15 minutes of charge. Also say there is something wrong with his computer.

  13. Freethought says:

    I checked with the Geek Squad desk in the Oxnard store. The processor is an Intel T-4300 (2.1 GHz). It's about 15% slower than the T-6600, but still pretty fast for most people. I have a substantially slower processor in my laptop, and I'm happy with the performance so far.

    yeah sony sucks, DO NOT BUY IT.

  27. sleepynow says:

    the VGN deal was definitely available online. You had to stay up until 6am ET to take advantage of it, but they were certainly available. I purchased this exact model for my fiancee. I'm very proud of myself and very tired..

  29. Mark says:

    Per Best Buy's website, this does NOT have a dual core processor. It has an Intel® Pentium® processor T4300. Last night, BB said it was regularly priced at $999, which is laughable. Now they are saying “regular price $439.98; you save $39.99″ I'm not saying it is a good price, but not nearly as good as the review makes it appear.

  30. jpags says:

    $399 STARTING ON THE 27TH AND 10UNITS FOR EVERY BRANCH. BUT WHEN U TRY TO SEE THE DETAILS YOU CAN FIND IT THERE SOLD OUT…. WHAT IS THIS..? THEY WILL TRY TO FOOL US..

    Hey I bought a sony vaio Z-series laptop in Aug in Singapore. Since then, I had sent in 3 times for service. They all blame it on microsoft/windows on 1st time on corrupted file. The last time they said I had a virus in my vaio, quite weridly my two acer laptops had no problems despite the same usage. One of my acer was like 4 year old, and more was a display set that I bought. It was totally ok. Sony sucks. Their battery which was claimed to last 6 hours was only true when all requirements are running on minimal, like super dark screen. Otherwise , is 2 hours. This is my first and last time buying their product.
