Yeah that price would make me rip my hair out.. I paid $1500 for my Dell, with a 2.4 GHZ P4 and 40Gig hardrive, cd-rw/dvd 256mb ram.. so the Sony you mentioned seems better.. But the price is a bit unnerving..

I paid around $1,000 for my Viao a year ago, it was a top of the line model then. Work's great - btw. We constantly buy new Viao's for our company at those prices. Laptops, unlike desktops, are still profitable for most companies. I wouldn't be too surprised by that price. Go for it.

damn the thing has a dvd-burner, that alone would negate the possibility of an $811 price tag.... im thinking they are factory refurbed or something.

was that a documented feature, or did you need to teach it?
