WMcMullin's Full Review: Sony V505BX NB P4/2000 512MB 40GB DVD CDRW 12.1IN ...
This sounds like a great computer... and it is except for one major problem. It closes windows you are working on. Sometimes it just minimizes them, but usually it just closes them while you're working on them. Whatever you were working on is lost. I bought one from Circuit City and returned it with no hassles. Then, I bought the same model at Best Buy. This computer also had the same problem...only Best Buy wouldn't take the computer back 2 days later without charging me a $255 restocking fee.

So watch out for this computer. Wait until Sony works out this bug.
