    I'm looking at buying my first notebook and I've decided on the N series. A store here in Canada has the VGNN250EW on sale for $999 and another store has the VGNN270EW on for $1299 with a $200 free color printer.

    I'm wondering if the only difference is the larger hard drive and faster processor. Based on the comparison feature on sonystyle.ca the 250 has a 120gb drive and a T2250 processor and the 270 has a 160gb drive and a T2350 processor but otherwise they are identical. Is that right? Is it worth it for the faster processor? I don't have a color printer but I don't know how much I'd use it.

    OK, I have a new easier question. I'm trying to decide between the brown and the white versions. I've seen the white one in person but no store in the area has the brown one. Anyone have opinions on brown vs white.
