    Whoa, I just saw the thread "SZ650 possibly a lemon?" which was totally weird as I read through the thread and notice quite a number of people have some leakage in the screen...

    But yeah I was contemplating on both of these laptops[ Sony VAIO VGNTZ160CB vs. Sony VAIO VGNSZ650NC]

    Which one do you think I should go for and would be the best options? They cost the same $2499.98[CDN]

    Most if not all LED screens will have some light leakage. I know that I can see some at the top and bottom on my TZ, but it's minimal and does not bother me when browsing or watching some media.

    of course its gonna be the sz the tz fills a certain niche portable with battery life. Don't get me wrong the SZ is portable but its 2.79lbs as oppose to 4.5lbs and the battery life blows SZ away. The SZ will blow the doors off the TZ in performace and gaming
