| eanshay2000's Full Review: Sony VAIO FX220 PC Notebook |
AHHH, The Sony Vaio PCG-FX220! One of the best computers I've owned. Lemme' tell you a little about it. This computer is FAST, blazing at an amazing 750 MHz. It's sure to get what you want done... done with speed. Memory? NOT A PROBLEM! 128 MB RAM will suit your need for whatever you want to throw at it. The beautiful 15" screen is so crisp and clear, you can't stop looking at it. With the built in DVD-ROM Drive RELAX! You can now sit in the most comfy chair in the house, and watch your favorite movie... and with the 15" screen it's twice as good. Get a Coke and some popcorn, why? Well with the TV OUT port, plug in this computer to your TV and watch DVD movies right off your TV screen. The keyboard on this computer is one of the best laptop keyboards I have come in contact with. It's... in a way... a QUIET keyboard. I had a laptop before this one and when I compared those keys to the Sony's, The Sony keyboards are a million times better. I've had mine for about three weeks now, and have had no problems with it, and plan not to. Sony's technical support will be there for you if, for some odd reason, your Sony fails you. But I wouldn't count on that happening anytime soon. The weight of the computer is great, it's a little under 7 LBS with the battery and the floppy drive in it's bay. And when I say bay I mean SEPARATE floppy bay. The DVD drive is internal, the floppy is a separate bay that is removable. WHY? Because the genius SONY thought up a wonderful device called a weight saver. What does this do? I think that is self explanatory... It lightens your computer weight. If you take out your floppy drive by pressing a little button on the bottom of the computer, you can take it out and put in the weight saver. AMAZING! Now... let's talk about price. I bought mine at BestBuy for $1,499.00 For that price this computer is amazing. You would actually expect to spend more money for a computer of this quality. DON'T BE FOOLED WITH OTHER BRANDS! With Sony you get what you pay for, and that's a guarantee that you can count on for the life of the computer. Also with it you get a 3 month warranty. DON'T WORRY! If you register your computer online you get it up to a year. That's a year parts and labor, AND technical support. What more would you want from the best laptop manufacturer? SONY VAIO!!!
