    hello,
    I'd like to buy a sony vaio from the FW series. I saw that there was a FW51 line (with the ZF/H, MF/H and JF/H) and a FW41 line (with the ZJ/H, M/H E/H). First I thought, that the 51's were newer so probably better. so i wanted the FW51 MF/H. But I was looking for the price of it and it was only a bit more expensivethan the FW41ZJ/H. Also the specifications were the same except: FW51 MF/H: windows 7,blue ray reader
    FW41ZJ/H: blue ray reader + writer

    that's it except some other software app..

    WHAT SHOULD I DO ?? DID I DIDN'T SEE SOMETHING ???
    Are there more differents except these, in layout and all. because except the windows 7 i think the FW41 is better ?? and cheaper ?? how can that be ??

    Looking forward for your answer !! ;)

    If the FW41 is qualified for free win7 upgrade(I think they are all qual), get the FW41. FW51 are just same spec w/ 7.
