    Hi All,

    I am thinking of purcashing Vaio SZ780N, the price difference between SZ780N and SZ791N is like $700 on P1...

    I have gone through pretty much all the specs on both of them, and only difference I see is that the Hard Drive & 2 GB RAM (More on 791N)

    I have owned T and TX series and I know RAM upgrade on my T350 was pain in the a$$...

    I want to know is it the same in SZ7 series??

    Is it pretty accessablie?

    Also, if you think there are other differences, please do let me know.

    RAM slots are easily accessible via a panel at the base of the laptop. As for the hdd, it'd take a while but it's not 'too' difficult (it'd take your around 8-9 screws to remove a hdd).
