I had posted a similar deal before, but the price was almost 1k. It now has gone down even more if you you configure it. there is also a free Bluray Burner until the 25th of April

It will take a couple of weeks to deliver, but you can configure it directly in the sony shop giving you a point of return if things didnt work out.

This is not for everyone, but if you are looking for a laptop to do some editing, design work or 3D this could be it. It has just gone down in price, since this used to be £1049.

The great thing about this laptop is the antiglare screen, and a bigger 16 inch screen for the HD resolution

    Hi aa, yea that one is a good deal as well, the difference is that only with the higher model i7 you will be getting that amazing antiglare full HD screen. With the i5 version you will be getting the glossy screen. But it's a cheaper version for sure

    Nice. 1920*1080, so I can watch Blu ray and full HD on my lap!

    I'd rather put the £750 towards downpayment on a cinema room and save my eyes.

    it actually doesnt come with a bluray by default, but the upgrade is quite reasonable. Its only 30 quid.

    But the reason you'd want an HD screen is because you need to produce HD content yourself. But yeah its not a machine for the average user..

    Good but old i7 so substantially slower than the new Dell XPS 17s for cheaper (though granted, without the full HD screens) so cold.

    Was waiting for the xps pack to take the bite ;).

    This machine is miles better built than the xps line...

    main difference is the screen res, this is full HD resoultion 1920 X 1080 antiglare as the insipiron is 1366 x 768 glossy..

    Also this has an Nvidia gt 425 as the dell has an ATI. ill let you research which one is better!

    This looks nice. I'm currently on the lookout for a laptop that's stylish and can compete with the MBP for looks / performance.

    I'm liking the look of the HP Envy series but might look into these a bit more as well.

    Anybody got any other suggestions ?

    Voted hot :).

    what exactly do you need it for? any screen size?

    @dromi - Nice deal, it is such a shame that so many fail to appreciate the value of display resolution. It always makes me cringe when people vote for 1366 x 768 monitors at £80 to £90 and really think they are bargains.

    Vaios are very durable. I have used mine for over 7 years now, despite very rugged use and rather rough handling.
