That's a pretty **** laptop mate, I saw your shoutbox, as people have said you should build a PC instead of buying a laptop, Sony VAIO are just like Dell, because of the name brand you pay more. You could build a sick PC for the same price you would be paying for that easily, don't buy any of the ready made PC's the really good ready made ones are usually £2k+, it's stupid, nowadays it's far cheeper to just build your own PC. If you don't know how to build a PC then buy the parts and get a technician to build it for you for around £50-100, will still be so much cheeper. You can see their cutbacks as well; 667 MHZ RAM, nowa days you can buy solid DDR3 RAM off a website like Newegg, top of the range 1333MHZ 2GB Corsair for like £130, or for instance the Hard Drive, most have 7200RPM, they've dropped it back once again to 5400RPM, you can pickup 300GB of 7200RPM for £60, they bump up the price and give you old **** parts. Think about it!  Lee. Last edited on 13 May 2008 - 22:07 PM. (Edited 2 times) |

Well i'm sure you'll be able to find "Build your own PC" websites that will let you pay monthly, but I really wouldn't buy that Laptop as it is ****. I know you said about Pay Monthly, but tis' not worth it. I'll have a look around. |

| Or just buy a piece of your computer weekly or monthly. Your computer your on now seems fine enough to wait for about 4 months and at the end of it you will have a **** hot pc. |
