    My boss prefers Sony notebooks, I prefer Z96j for working outside our lab.
    Please give some facts or something else so that I could persuade my boss from buying sony.
    thanks

    don't even try.

    The risks is that if your boss does buy the z96j and hates it then guess who he's gonna blame? This is exemplified by the fact that he already has a bias towards sony laptops... so if anything goes wrong, he'll just get pissed at you. Maybe 3 year later, the z96j may break down and guess who he's still gonna blame? (he'll probably say something about sony quality...)

    Besides, what do you have to gain if you do pursuede him?

    Never ever, try to convince your boss for something he may get mad at you in the future.
