sony vaio

[simmo.3]

hi guys,
im looking at buying my youngest son a laptop to replace his old desk top, it will be used for game playing, net and uni.
i like the look of the sony's but, i respect what you guys have to say.
im looking at spending around £800. so whats the best lappy for games at that price and of course a bit of typing at uni.
only thing a can say for sure is i would like a 16-19inch screen.

thanks guys
simmo

you can get a sony Vaio e-series with a 5650 card and a fairly decent spec for 800 with a 17" screen. see the recent meduim laptop thread for some relevent remarks

I would also keep an aye at the upcoming UL50JT, although it's 15''. Batteries are always a problem, especially if he thinks of lugging his laptop around.
