    Return it? :D
    Format and do a fresh install?
    Partition the 750gb drive?
    Suggestions?

    I haven't even taken it out of the box yet. I know it's not top of the line but it's what I can comfortably afford. I'm kinda surprised it comes with 6gb of ram but the max is only 8? :confused: Seems like they always need a little tweaking right out of the box. I guess that's what I'm asking.

    If you had a new one to do over, what would it be?

    I have used sony computer for two years. It is really great. But I know nothing about this. When I got it, it is well configured and installed.

    I just got one for the wife...Actually typing on it right now...I just uninstalled the vaio gate and some other bloatware, other than that i think its pretty good. I cant stop using it. hOnestly for under 600 bucks its a well put and equipped laptop. Hech ive been using it more than my S13P, as it tends to run cooler than my S13P when used on my lap.
