-1 for Vaio (avoid them!) Many BIOS bugs and ACPI issues etc.. I'm considering the IBM Lenovo IdeaPad Y510-x00 or the Y710 series. As they have a good build Q and good FSB speed with good support, and with the ATi RadeonHD driver coming in the next build (88) its well worth considering the Y710 series
Review here: http://www.ubergizmo.com/15/archives/2008/01/lenovo_ideapad_y510_y710.html Y510: http://www-07.ibm.com/lenovoinfo/au/ideas/yseries/y510.html Y710: http://www-07.ibm.com/lenovoinfo/au/ideas/yseries/y710.html I am told that they are a OEM for Solaris ?? Maybe they will ship it with Solaris ?
