Sony Vaio FW 260

This notebook was primarily purchased as a PC to take to college. Now when you think college, you probably are thinking of portability. Being an Engineer major, portability comes second to power. This notebook was meant to provide up to four years of casual and heavy computing. The GPU was the important decision maker; I needed something dedicated, and the market was flooded with possibly defective nVidia GPUs. I narrowed my choices down to the VAIO FW and HP dv5t. I ended up going with the VAIO FW because of the larger screen and faster processor at my price range.
