16in display with 32mb Radeon 7500 ----> I'm droooooooolllling

Cmon this has got to be the one to get, too bad I don't have 4g's to spend.

 

[Keego]

only 32mb vram? laaaame

 

[Keego]

and it's not even DDR vram!

 

[BlueApple]

And only weights 8.7 pounds

 

[Derango]

And its a sony. Most sony laptops I've come across have died shortly after that one year warranty has run out. And if it dies while its under warranty, good luck with sony support. They're not all that good.

Tsk... at least the Dell notebooks have a 64MB video card in them...

 

[UglyCasanova]

Don't the Inspiron 8200's have a portable GF4 and run P4's w/DDR?

 

[Chrono]

1.7 ghz only?!
damn man! ASUS is show casing a 2.0 ghz laptop at CEbit right now...

;o

What's the battery life? 10-20 minutes??

 

[BlueApple]

I actually like it due to its LARGE screen size.

<< What's the battery life? 10-20 minutes?? >>



heh, If I were feeling generous, I would say around 2 hours...maybe 1:30, depending on the brightness of the LCD panel

Looks really nice to me, but that screen might be too big for a laptop!

the 15" model weighs 8.6 pounds it says. with an ac adapter and bag you are lookng at 10. with the 16" probably another pound. this notebook is basically a desktop. japanese people in japan will snap this up since they ahve limited office space, but i dont know about america. who would want to carry this thing, and most of us have plenty of space. its heavier than the dell and more expensive, and slowe.r might as well get the dell, or the new compaqs that weigh 3-4 pounds less. you could carry the new compaq and a subnotebook and itd weigh this much.

I know there are some shortcomings, but 16in display is awesome

 

[ThaGrandCow]

This laptop would be sweet if you're a bodybuilder and can lug the thing around. Also I hope you have an ice pack to keep it cool. I bet with that large of a screen and a mobile P4 this baby runs HOT.

 

[toant103]

i would never buy a sony computer...........

only monitor and electronic

<< and it's not even DDR vram! >>



hmmm.... the spec sheet says its 128 bit DDR

but I'm still not sure why they didn't give it 64MB of vram. It seems that with a 1600x1200 display you might want a little more vram.
