Advantages: It works sometimes. Disadvantages: Loads
..., and constantly skips tracks and miss reads data.
For a Sony product it's abysmal, and after not using it for only 2 months it will no longer read anything, and the lens is clean, I personally manually cleaned it to eliminate that as the cause.
As a final note, the software which is now quite dated has loads of limitations and will not allow over burning or mixed mode making it pretty useless to most people....

...well i have always been a sony fan for the sheer elegance of their models and the Sony TZ11 is no different.
of course you do pay for what you get hence the Sony TZ11 is not the cheapest model available in the market for it's specs. i would recommend a toshiba for the perfect balance of price vs. durability and reliability. sony models are very likely to break down just after the warranty runs out if over used e.g. leaving it on all night or constantly runnings many application and the prices just to get it looked at are sky high! this doesn't bother me as i tend to change model every 6 months or so as my work requires me to be up-to-date. if in safe hands, and used wisely, however, a sony will perform everytime so highly recommended!...

Advantages: Stylish design Disadvantages: To heavy
...A surperb laptop again from sony that has too many features to list. Here we have the sony laptop GRT816s featuring an intel pentium 4 procesor with the speed of 2.8ghz which is fast for any user designed for hungry applications.
The good thing about this sony laptop is that it has a special screen designed to go at higher resolutions. The reason for this is that you can now watch your favourite movies at excellant picture quality from this wonderfull laptop.
sony have did it again by featuring a massive 80gb harddrive for all your storage needs. As well as installing as many applications as you like this sony laptop will never let you down.
This is a good buy recommended by a lot of people....
