    Hi everyone,

    There is sale going on for the VPC F1190 on the sony website for Canada. It costs about $1000 CAD. and the laptop has the following specs:


    Intel® Core™ Quad i7-720QM processor (1.60GHz) with Turbo Boost up to 2.80GH
    Microsoft Windows® 7 Home Premium
    Black
    4GB (2GBx2) DDR3-SDRAM-1333
    320 GB SATA Hard Disk Drive [7200 rpm]
    DVD +/- R DL / DVD +/- RW / DVD-RAM Drive
    16.4" VAIO Display (1600x900) with NVIDIA® GeForce® 310M GPU (512MB VRAM)
    Keyboard Backlight
    Standard Capacity Battery

    Is this a good price? I researched and found out that this model had overheating problems but there was an update. Also, how is the battery life of this laptop?
