    Hi
    I’ve bought a SONY FZ-140E laptop (Made in China) and have two questions:
    1- SONY says that the screen is XBrite and is Anti-Reflective. So I suppose it won’t show or reflect the outside light sources, but it is like a mirror and shows everything in it, it really bothers when watching movies. So , did I misunderstand the meaning of Anti-Reflective or my screen has problems ?
    2- Its cpu is Intel T7100 (Core 2 Duo, Intel 64). Is this a real 64-bit cpu ? or it has only two 32-bit cores ? Could I install Windows 64-bit on it ? (Precisely, is it able to run 64-bit apps ??)
    Thanks

    1. I'm not sure about the answer to this one...

    2. Depends on what you mean by a "real" 64bit CPU... Is it "real" to the extent that the Intel Intanium is? No, the Itanium is a pure 64bit CPU... Is it real to the extent that it can do consumer level 64bit (running Windows Vista 64bit, etc.)? Yes!

    So yes you can run 64bit apps and etc. on it :D
