Sony Vaio VGN-FZ31Z

[IMC]

Hi Guys,

I'm looking for a bit of advice on a new laptop, mainly on what you think and is it the right choice.

I have my eye on the Sony Vaio VGN-FZ31Z (specs here) and was wondering if anyone owned one or could see any bad points with it. It is quite pricey and i want to make sure i make the right choice.

I would be using it for both work and personal use. That would mean using programs such as all Adobe CS3 poducts, Office and even a little video editing (mainly Sony Vegas).

I would also like to be able to play a few games. The games I am likely to be playing would be The Sims 2, Rollercoaster Tycoon 3, SimCity, Football Manager etc... I prefer to play games such as Call Of Duty and FIFA on the PS3 so i don't intend to use it for those.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

The sony vaio is a tad pricey just for the name.

I'm not sure what other brands are sold in UK, but you may want to check out toshiba, hp, and dell which have similar specs to the vaio. It'll be cheaper on the wallet as well.
