Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Great computer! Comment: First product review, so please bare with me. I got this computer in August, so I've been using it for a few months now. I must say that overall I am very satisfied with it. I'm going to list my two qualms first because they are relatively minor: -Sound: I've had problems with the sound drivers for about a month now. I think this might have more to do with vista than the actual computer, though. It's not a difficult process to reinstall them. -Battery Life: The battery life is a little dismal. You are given three modes for viewing the screen when not plugged in. High performance will drain the battery quickly (hour-hour and a half), while balanced & power saver do much better. On to the pros: Wireless: Great wireless card in this computer. It was easy to set up, and runs great. Design: The exterior looks great, but it is prone to fingerprints. The interior on the other hand is simply awesome. I love the brushed silver finish. The computer itself is sleek as well. My friend just bought a comparable Gateway model, and I noticed it was slightly bulkier than the cr309e. Components: I haven't gamed or anything along those lines, but for everyday use this is more than sufficient. Vista takes up a lot of memory, so I'm upgrading to 4gig of ram soon. It's not a knock against the computer though. 2 is more than sufficient. The 14.1" screen is absolutely perfect. I bring up the analogy of the three bears because the screen feels just right.. Overall, I definitely recommend this computer. It's knocks definitely are outweighed by the positives. Sony has a reputation of putting out quality products, and this laptop is no exception. Customer Rating: Summary: Broken. . . Comment: Mine broke within the first week. I would like to think it was a rare occurance, but let's just say I won't be buying a Vaio again. I booted it up one morning to read "critical error, please enter original CDs". . . did it come with original CDs? Nope! Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent Laptop... Comment: I like it a lot. It is very small and compact and the blue is beautiful. This laptop came very fast and in good conditions. And the software installation is very easy. Customer Rating: Summary: Sony Vaio Comment: I love my computer and I only notice one bad thing about it. The battery life after charging is kinda low. But as long as your keep it charged it works great! Customer Rating: Summary: very slow Comment: I started having problems from the 1st minute. The computer function very slow reminded me the speed of computers 15 years ago. Then I started having sound and graphics malfunction. I had to do system restore which helped for less then 30 min's. I ended up returning it. More Reviews
