My understanding is that these Vaio's are rebranded - either Dell's or HP's - can't remember. Either way you can't really go wrong. ~TikiGuy tikiguy AT gmail.com [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings] [Donations and Support]

Not sure about the notebooks, but I just purchased one of the Vaio RS Series. I haven't had any issues yet (except for getting my studio monitors to work), but it runs a little loud. Still better than my old 1.4 GHz Dell as far as performance goes. Candace K. Cottrell, Web Developer The Children'
