    Well I may be returning my Dell XPS m1530 because of a grainy samsung screen that Dell refuses to replace. So my next choice in laptop is a nice Vaio. Basicilly what I want in a laptop is....

    15.4 inch LCD
    T8300 processor
    nVidia 8600GT
    200 gb 7200rpm HD

    Now, is there a vaio with these specs? I cant find any 8600GT's at all.

    Only line with the 8600's are the AR series. 17" laptops.

    The FZ is the closest to the M1530 (both 15.4"), but the FZ only has an 8400GT. So, if it's important to get a 15.4" with 8600GT... I suggest looking at Asus (various models), Lenovo Thinkpad T61p, or Apple MBP instead. Compal/Sager may have something too, I'm not sure.
