Sony VAIO VGN-FZ485U Professional Reviews:
PCmag has reviewed the Sony VAIO VGN-FZ485U and given out-
“Bottom Line:Despite incorporating a Blu-ray burner and 4GB of RAM, the Sony VAIO VGN-FZ485U mainstream laptop may price out many consumers. Pros:Blu-ray burner. nVidia graphics enhances the Blu-ray experience and gaming. HDMI-out port. 4GB of RAM. Cons:Too expensive. Filled with “bloatware.” Miserable battery life. Extended battery option is also expensive. Resolution should be higher for a 15-inch screen. Comes with only a 4,200-rpm hard drive.”
Main Features:

* Genuine Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate OS

I own this machine and like it very much. When one spends several thousand on a Vaio it should not be filled with useless trail software. It took hours to remove. It never comes off completely as there is no incentive to write the uninstall so that it removes all the files. Sony builds fine hardware but has many problems in writing good software for peripherals. When I bought this machine the was no option to buy without the junk software. The other problem is that SONY DOES NOT GIVE YOU DISK MEDIA FOR THE OS. The OS is on a hidden drive. I bought this computer knowing the junk software but was surprised by the lack of OS media considering I paid 150.00 xtra for Vista Ult. I really question as to whether I would buy another.

In order to be fair, i couldn’t say at first that i was disappointed with the product, as a mather of fact, i was in heaven when it arrived.
This VAIO, works wonderful. There are only a few things that i didn’t like: for example, not recieving ANY COPY of drivers or installation CDs for any software, shareware, and operating system on the computer. It’s also a little bit heavy, but i think it doesn’t come out of what i’ve planned.
