    Hello all,

    I found this forum to contain some pretty good info regarding the pre-release and post-release of the Sony Vaio Z. I received my new Z about a week ago. Everything is great, I love it, it is an amazing piece of engineering. One of my complaints is the older, forceware 188.80 driver.

    Here is a link to Nvidia's new WHQL driver for 300M series GPUs (64 bit):

    Supports hybrid power, etc. I just started downloading these. If anybody has updated to these already please let me know if a) they work and b) your experience with them. It says Sony Vaio notebooks are supported.

    Someone should start a thread of important software updates that aren't made available through Sony's website. One such update that I followed by forum member Zoinks was the Intel Rapid Storage Technology to 9.6.

    Thanks for your input everyone.
