Advantages: Stylish, Compact, Modern and amazing Media Centre
Disadvantages: Not totally up to date and must have an aerial cable

Well I was brought one of these systems about over a year and a half ago by my parents and originally I was very dissapointed thinking it was just some trendy model without any real decent features but I was wrong.... very wrong. This offers Media Centre where I can simply play my DVDs like any random but cool DVD player or if I am bored listen to the Radio without waiting to stream. Whatever I want I get with this... watch LIVE television? YEAH ...
...drive is extremely useful since I have long ditched my VCR in favour of this. You can download additional add ons for Media Centre such as alarm clocks and packages. One thing I have recently discovered is that I can not add Media Player 11 Beta! This has annoyed me but sooner or later they will configure it to deal with my media centre. Overall, if you are into dvds, tv, radio and interactive features than this system is made for YOU! I do not ... Read review

Advantages: Small, great heatsink!, Firewire built it!
Disadvantages: The size limits the lack of drive space

I have very little space for a PC in my study area (i.e. hole under the stairs!) and I hate clutter anyway so I wanted a PC I could stick in a cupbaord but still leave space for all my other compurter perifferals. This fitted the bill. It is the easy self build PC really as the it comes as a case with the mother board fitted (the hard part of a self build really I guess). I needed a CD/ DVD drive, a hard drive, processor and some RAM. This takes ...
...are different versions for other processors). I put a 3G P4 in mine and was glad to see it does support the hyper threading technology, which allows for faster multitasking. Wether it does 2 tasks at once or does some fancy concurrent tasking management I'm not sure, but it processes things very fast from my point of view! When putting it together I was amazed by the heatsink cooling system, it is genius and necessary for something this small. It ... Read review

Advantages: Looks extremely sexy, quick and reliable with the right protection
Disadvantages: Comes with very little "worth having" software

My father bought this computer as a family computer. Since buying it we have run into a few problems with it. The screen developed a frozen pixle. (a pixle that only appears in one colour). Also the computer came with no anti adware/anti spyware software what so ever. After only a few months of having it, the machine had to be formatted(everything cleared off the hardrive) this caused me and my brother to loose work and we had to reload all of our ...
...can see a small flap at the bottom of the tower, when this is folded down there are lots and lots of different card slots, very useful when your family has 3 or four digital cameras. This is a great computer although with your money you are paying a lot for the fact its Sony. Don't make the same mistake as me, make sure that before you do anything on it, get as much anti spyware and anti adware on there as you can. I would recommend ad-aware and ... Read review

Advantages: Fast, Powerful, Expandable, Well Built
Disadvantages: Costly,

...Sony. As with most Sony products, what you are paying for is the brand. On this occasion I would suggest that it is almost worth it because of the build quality. Sony's support system is also very good and I definately would consider buying from them again (funds permitting). The system has served me well over the last few months and I do think others would feel the same. ... Read review
