   Summary: An outstanding computer
I am so pleased with this computer. It is a dream to use, and is beautifully designed. I read reviews and looked at different models for months before finally committing to buying this vaio FW.

One tip - the volume keys make an annoying beep when you press them. It is easy to deactivate though - you go to C:Program Files (x86)SonyVAIO Event Service, and rename the file "pi" to something else - I renamed it piold. This was advice given to me by Sony support.

   Summary: Sony Audio Flaw Through HDMI
Be aware of the audio driver problem on this new Sony laptop. It won't play the audios on your HDTV when connecting through its HDMI. The HDMI audio driver posted on Sony website can't be installed(complaining it can only be installed on Windows Vista). I don't know what else I can do. Have spend tons of time on Sony Tech Support and can't have the solution.

   Summary: Sony laptop VGN 170
These 16.4" Sony laptops are good as many reviews had mentioned.But here are my troubles:I broke the LCD screen within my first week of having it by letting it felt from the first step of my stair.This was only 6 inch fall and the laptop was in a padded carrying case.Not a bad fall but bad enough to damage the laptop.The seller would not take it back and Sony said it was my fault ! I'd say be gentle with it if you owned one since it is quite fragile . And It is also pretty tough to deal with Sony warranty Department when you really needed it!
