I have been trying to find out which one to get also. I was leaning toward the HP, but then I see the Sony name and it's a good bit thinner also ! Every Sony product I have ever had has been a TOP. But I see that a good amount of people have not such good words for vaio's.
At my BB here in Atlanta they took the HP off the shelf Tuesday of last week, And never had the vaio on display ! They do however have a Sony Vaio core duo, on clearance for $ 799.
***Anyone know what time one should start lining up For BF ???
*** Also anyone know if these two notebooks are SSE2 or SSE3 ??? Thanks. And if you live in atlanta sleep in, ok.... :)
