    Hey guys I have some quick question regarding the F1290X customizable Vaio, if anyone can quickly respond, here we go.

    1. How many MegaPixels is the MotionEye camera?
    2. What is the quality of the build-in Mic? (because the one on my Pavilion sucks and I need to use an external one)
    3. Can the Blu-Ray Recorder burn Dual Layer Blu-Rays? What are the Burning Speeds?
    4. What is the average operation time in high performance on battery?
    5. Is the larger capacity battery bigger in size from the original, meaning it will pop out the laptop?
    6. How many SATA drives can you install internally? Only one or there are two HD places available? In order to install one SSD and one HDD.
    7. How is the Full HD screen quality? (because I heard some complains in here)
    8. Anyone has the link with the official specifications PDF file from Sony? It was on their sonystyle.com website previously but I cannot find it now.
    9. and finally, about when the F1290X was introduced? Because I do not want to get one next week and a newer model be available next month.


    Thanks in advance

    Did you end up buying this computer? I'm considering it, and I have a couple of questions, if you don't mind. Ed
