trinityvixenI think I've given up the ghost as far as resuscitating my laptop goes. I'm drooling over these VAIOs I've been seeing at J&R, which is a good sign I'm ready to move on.
I'm going to CNet a couple of the models I've found, but $1500 isn't too bad for a VAIO, is it? Or should I go shop in stores rather than online? My discount is probably greater online, using my Columbia sources, but I should probably still shop around and be sure, right?
Also, any of the computer-savvy among my friends have any advice as to where else I might look up user reviews that are reliable for buyers?
FYI: The model I've got my eye on is a Sony VGN-FE550G VAIO (FE series). I also liked a Dell Inspiron 6400, but that seems to be way more expensive...unless the website wasn't factoring in my discount...even so, ouch.
