my dad just bought that same one... very fast, the screen on it is beautiful.. it does come loaded with alot of crap at first i just reformatted it for him, overall its an excellent labtop and u should enjoy it lots!!

I was just wondering did everything (hardware wise) work properly after the format. I assume you loaded it with a retail version of XP. I am a Sony tech and I have a lot of people that call in after installing a clean copy of XP and there are all kinds of problems with drivers and everything. I just hope everything worked out I personally have 2 VGNFS790's and a VGNFS8900 they are great computers but I agree there is way too much stuff on the computer when you first get it. Norton is the first thing I go and uninstall ick!

cheapest I've saw it here in NW AL has been $2.47 per gallon at some gas station near walmart (can't even think of who the gas company is).

same speeds (1.5/256) with CenturyTel but I got a price decrease. I'm not sure if it was an accident or what but I pay $39.95 now instead of $45.00 before. I think I'm still paying too much though.

here are some I've taken in the past few months when my flower garden was in good bloom. I took all of these with my Sony DSC-W5. I love that camera.
