    I've two netbooks to choose from wiv lil difference.
    The first one is sony vaio W series and the other is sony vaio M series.
    Now there are slight variations in the vaio models in india. e.g, both of these come wiv 2GB ram.
    W series has Atom N450 while M series has N470.
    But the thing that is troubling me is the display.
    W series has 1366 x 768 res
    M series has 1024 x 600 res.

    I just wana know how much diff it makes, coz acc to sony, W series doesnt have a gud battery when compared to M series!! I'm just providing u with a link to both of these so that u can get a better idea and help me to choose one of them!!

    Well hey are all pretty much the same.

    I would go with the higher resolution screen purely for the sake of having more real estate to work with and being able to fit most websites easily without having to scroll left and right.
