Sony VAIO VGN-FS760/W 15.4" Laptop Review
Sony VAIO VGN-FS760/W 15.4" Laptop Review from Skip Evan. Good Laptop (last you a few years at least), The Sony FS760 is a solid laptop that also has a dedicated video card which is why I bought it. It may only be a Geforce Go 6400 but at least it’s something. The machine is plenty powerful w/ a 1.86 Ghz Pentium M (Centrino) processor. The 512 MB of ram may be upgraded in the future but the dedicated video and strong processor keep me from doing it in such a hurry. I love this computer except for the fact I am a moron and dropped it. It’s what I’m using right now. The top metal latch is loose but it’s not broken. Valuewise its a little steep but I would never consider getting anything less than a Turion or Centrino in a laptop. I feel it was a good purchase but an expensive one that will pay off in time as I go to school and enjoy it in my free time.
Pros:
Excellent screen
DVD Burner and Sony Software allows for easy backup
Power Schemes including VAIO ultimate battery
Solid battery life (2 or 3 hours depending on what one is doing)
Does not get very hot
Cons:
Sony lies about battery life (Not 5 hours)
Empty space on top could be used for media options
Too easy to move mouse when typing (Common for a lot of Laptops)
It’s a Sony (I still use my Playstation 2)
512 MB of ram (Should be 1GB) that’s cause I don’t want to upgrd
Closing Comments:
I’m not huge on Sony software or their name which is why I feel
I probably paid $100 more than I needed to but when it comes
down to it, even “newer” laptops probably won’t beat the features of this Sony. Part to part comparison, this laptop will still be better than a basic laptop in 4 years easily.
