    Hi,

    I am to buy vaio fz31m. Have 3 questions:
    Is the difference between core2duo t7250 and t7500 big? (I would use laptop for cad/cam apps, photoshop, illustrator etc)

    Does it have the nice brushed metal finish? (beetwen the screen and keyboard)

    Is the black magnesium casing around the keyboard resistant? Will it rub off and become glossy?

    Best

    The T 7500 has higher L2 cache and faster. All FZ's have brushed metal finish.

    The casing around the K/b is not Mg casing, just plastic.
