Sony VGN-C2S Lap Top Review ofSony VAIO C1S/P - Core 2 Duo T5500 1.66 GHz - 13.3" TFTby
ScottishWestie
Advantages: Stylish, well made, good features, light weight, fantastic screen Disadvantages: Short power lead, only two USB outlets, no infra red
I've only owned my Sony lap top for a short time & I'm impressed with the geneal fit & finish, light weight construction, standard wi-fi & other features. The keyboard has a lovely quality feel to it, battery life is around 2 hours & the screen is totally amazing. It came with Vista Home Premium & Sony have added extra valuable software from Adobe & for Sony MP3s. The lap top comes with a separate SD card reader & memory stick 'gate' for simple downloading ... ...of colours, my one is in silver & white & looks similar to an Apple Mac lap top. My only gripes is the rather short power lead, only 2 USB outlets, no infra red facility & miserable one year warranty. However it is a rather stylish & well made lap top that should give years of good service. ...

Advantages: light, great colour, fast, easy to use, Disadvantages: mouse pad can be slow for a few seconds but picks up.

The fast processor allows you to access ... ...wireless internet on this laptop is so easy to use and i have never had any interuptions from the wireless access on the laptop.

why to buy a sony Review ofSony VAIO C1S/P - Core 2 Duo T5500 1.66 GHz - 13.3" TFTby
iggy06
Advantages: looks good Disadvantages: expensive
...i have always been a sony fan for the sheer elegance of their models and the Sony VAIO C1S/G. is no different. of course you do pay for what you get hence the Sony VAIO C1S/G 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 ...

Stevenwd86
Advantages: Lightweight, Small, Fast Disadvantages: No Bluetooth settings,
Lets make no mistake this is a really top laptop, it is possibly the best purchase I ever made, It come with all the standard features, lightning fast loading speeds, and excellent memory.
I use it mainly for work, and business presentations are a doddle, especially with it being able to handle the graphics, which is another use games, such as flight simulator run easily with no lag.
The size of this little machine will also astound you, it is ...
