I am reaaly happy that I bought this amazing lap top from this amazing website. Thank you amazon


4 out of 5 stars Good price for a good product   February 18, 2010
Martin Bages (México City, México.)
I was looking for many branches until I decided to buy the Sony Vaio Netbook.

As Advantages I can mention the fashionable design with excellent image (the higher Video resolution of the market for those kind of machines), Long life battery, 250GB Hard Drive (the biggest of the market at this price).
It's absolutely recommended to upgrade the RAM Memory from 1 to 2GB by buying a 2GB 256Mx64PC2-5300 DDR2 200-Pin SODIMM Memory, and a Memory stick in order to be able to use the ReadyBoost Memory (option anly allowed though Windows 7). Taking this actions you are able to have up to 3GB RAM memory, which allowed you to work with two or three heavy applications at the same time without delays.

Regarding the RAM memory upgrade I must say that it's not easy to do it by yourself, but after watching at a video in youtube for this specific model, this activity becomes relatively easy.

As disadvantages I have to definitely mention the small keyboard. It's in some way uncomfortable to type on those small keys.

So, as conclusion, I continuos thinking the Vaio 121 is one of the best netbooks option in the market for the price you can find in Amazon.



4 out of 5 stars COMPACT, RESPONSIVE, AND STYLISH   February 18, 2010
B. Family (Florida)
This is the newest model (W211AX) of Sony's Netbooks and has a extended battery life. While others may complain of the battery- I like the fact that it elevates the netbook up towards you. Depending on the surfing you do- you may have a bit less battery life than advertised. I ordered the pink Vaio and couldn't be more pleased. It was everything I expected it to be and then some. The Track pad is reasonably sized and much larger than most. The screen clarity is amazing. My only complaint is where the speakers are situated for the volume. I simply resolved this issue on my own and use my ipod head phones when listening to sound. To the lower right of screen you may also adjust zoom level. Your options are 100, 125, and 150. If you do increase the zoom level- You do loose a bit of viewing and must scroll from side to side. The keyboard buttons are a bit elevated and makes it easier for typing. The only other downfall that I could say would be that the netbook only comes with Windows 7 Starter. With this program starter version you are unable to change desktop background. Bummer... I love that I can install my SD card and download my photos too. Perfect for web surfing, downloading pics, typing, emails, etc.
AMAZING LITTLE NETBOOK!!!!!!!!
SONY CONTINUES TO IMPROVE THEIR APPEARANCE, MODELS INTERIOR, AND STAND BY THE SONY NAME WITH EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!!!!!

Great design and sleek look--until you install the battery. Sure, this high capacity battery provides 7 hours, but it kills the style. Also, the cooling fan is quite loud, and pretty much forces one to use headphones to listen to any audio. I'm sending mine back and looking for another product.
