    Who cares about the benchmarks if your notebook does what you need?

    Got 455.

    Running a VGN-Z555DN:

    P8600
    1600 x 900 resolution
    switched up the RAM to 8GB
    switched the OEM HDD with a 500GB Seagate Momentus G-Shock (7200 rpm)
    Nvidia 9300M GS
    Windows 7 Professional 64-bit

    I wish I had the current generation Z series though ...so nice...=\

    I got 576 on my VPCZ122GX/B, running Windows XP.

    Something seems off. The Drive Write Speed I got was only 37 MB/s, whereas my desktop with a regular 1 TB HDD got 97 MB/s. I know for a fact the RAID 0 SSDs in my Z122 are way faster than the desktop's old single HDD.

    Also, it identified Z12's Core i5-520M as Pentium II, but the desktop's Core i7-920 was identified correctly.
