We purchased our Sony Vaio PCV- RX203 about 2 and a half years ago, but purchased a top of the range one. As a result it had much the same spec as the ones on sale now, eg, DVD-RW, 512MB RAM, 120GB hard disk, pentium 4 2GHz, and we paid about £1200 for it.

The reason I am choosing to review it now is because I felt it would be useful to those of you out there looking to buy a PC, to know how reliable this PC has been. I am an IT consultant by trade, as it my partner, so I know how often hard disks and other components fail on PC's supplied by other large brand names! The only thing to break on our PC, in 2 and a half years, is the speakers that were supplied with it, and as our PC gets used for at least 6 hours a day, gets software and hardware beta tested on it, and has been moved house in a van with no suspension, that's not bad going!

The machine itself is very nice to look at, and runs very quietly compared to similar machines by other manufacturers. It has USB and firewire slots conveniently located onthe front of the machine, as well as the back, which makes using things like MP3 players, and scanners a doddle. This PC is well designed and sturdily built, and I would recommend it to anyone! It may cost more than other big brands such as Dell, but I believe it is money well spent.
