Hi,
I recently purchased the Sony Vaio pcg505f mini notebook.  It comes with a
special external floppy drive but transferring the JFW key worked perfectly,
I didn't have to do anything special.  The system I got was a Pentium 233mmx
with 32mb ram.  I am running win98 using JFW3.2031 with eloquence as the
synthesizer.  It is great.
This is definitely an improvement over the BNS.
