  Isn't this almost exactly the same spec as the ill-fated misprice on Thursday?
  
  Voted hot anyway. Good price for an i5 Vaio.

  It's not the same. The same processor but the other one had a AMD Radeon(TM) HD 7670M graphic card with 1GB RAM and 2 USB3 ports, and was 14". and just circa £375
  
  smaller HDD tho in the misprice one as it was only 320GB.

  Why no USB 3.0??? Why do all these laptop manufacturers scrimp on the USB ports? A couple of quid extra and they could have supplied it with USB 3.0 and instead of an internal optical drive leave an empty bay for the user to easily add their own SSD.
  Only if HD Caddy manufacturers could find some way of getting over the interface limitations and include a USB 3.0 controller in the caddy's spare space!
  Thinking of getting this one for my Acer: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-SATA-2nd-HDD-HARD-DRIVE-Disk-caddy-12-7mm-Optical-Bay-Slot-Acer-Aspire-5750G-/300702614330
  
  Sorry OP. My rant for the day.

  OP you could edit the description to remove some of the blank lines and make it readable - might get more votes if folks can read the specs easily...
