    Hey, y'all.
    I am trying to buy laptop, which is going to be my primary computer for next 3 years or so (until I graduated from university). I have deep interest in Sony SR and Samsung X 460 - 43pw.

    I want to know any concern, issues, or any comments on Sony SR would be great.
    Thanks

    I own the SR220J. Overall, I really love it esp the SHARP, BRIGHT Screen. SONY ships with a lot of bloatware so you definitely want to do a Clean Install. After that, it should be much, much faster. It's light, sexy, and fast. One caveat is that the standard battery lasts me MAX 3 HRS on standard battery, more like 2.5 hrs and the Extended battery costs $249 and I heard even that lasts only 4-5 hrs MAX. SO, if you are going to be unplugged a lot, it might be a deal-breaker
