Sony Vaio VGN-TX2XP/B

AFTER SO MANY ADVICES from close friends/colleagues and several visits to various on-line distributors/manufacturers and high street stores, I decided to buy a SONY VAIO VGN-TX2XP in DIXONS in Manchester Aiport Terminal 3 prior to my check-in outbound to Boston. Since it is tax free, the notebook's price is £1,497.86 (high street price is almost £1,700), inclusive of 1 year warranty. Well, it is not a surprise for me to see you frowning or seeing you with a surprise facial expression for knowing that I paid that much for only a laptop. Please dont argue about this, it is my personal choice for ... more

This laptop was bought as a replacement to my Sony VAIO TR1MP which was stolen from me in March. It has all the same functionality as the standard TR and TX range with a few adjustments and upgrades. The TX2XP ships with 1GB or memory which is shared with the graphics card (which comes set at 128MB). The memory can be upgraded with a further 512MB should you feel the need. The hard disk drive size has also been substantially increased from a measly (and easily fillable) 30GB drive to a whopping 80GB drive. The internal optical drive has also been changed from a CD-RW/DVD drive to a Re ... more

I've owned my TX2XP for over a year now, and I can honestly say that it has totally lived up to my expectations! I was seeking a laptop that was lightweight, had excellent battery life but which also delivered good performance. The TX2XP has not disappointed and attracts admiring comments! I use my computer daily for at least 5 or 6 hours - sometimes more - so the long battery life (especially when travelling) has been a boon. I had a problem at one point, and the machine had to be returned to Sony for repair under warranty. It was returned within 3 working days, which I thought was excellent ... more

I was looking for a small and very portable laptop with a long battery life, exactly what I have got in this laptop!! The keyboard took a bit of getting used to but now I struggle to use 'normal' size keys. The screen is very clear, important when you consider the text is quite small due to the small screen size. I've been using the computer for almost 3 years now and haven't really had any problems with it. The only thing I've noticed is it is getting quite slow and the memory fills up easily so I've had to remove some of my larger files such as holiday photos. However I would definetely ... more
