Should I Buy the Sony TX850?
I'm looking into a new laptop for school and I was wondering what are the pros and cons of the TX850? Like honestly, I wouldn't do any gaming outside of my desktop, and I would just use it for msn/writing essays/some video watching.
The price I can get at is $1600(Canadian) FLAT, brand new.
What do you guys think of it?

The price is very low for such a notebook. Where did you get such a price?

Employee discount LOL
I was hoping for a nice laptop around 600-1200 CDN so this $1600 is outta my initial budget. I was wondering should I just spend $400 more and buy this or what do you guys think?
Hows this laptop etc?

Do you really want something that small, if not then there are a lot of others available in your price range.

Buy it now!! I think that is one of the coolest laptops I have seen. Its ultraportable and if you won't need it for gaming, the smaller the better.
Inspiron 1520--8600gt--t7500 2.2ghz
1280x800--2gb ram--about time for an upgrade
