- Did not come with back up CDs. You need to take a copy of your system for future reboot. Although better than most laptops. sound quality is not that great.

Processing Speed
Pre-Loaded Software (Ranging from PMB to Vaio Media Plus)
Motion Sensing Camera (Although only VGA, recognises hand movements to shuffle music in Media Plus)

Battery Life is slightly disappointing (around 1.5- 2.5 hours compared with the expected 3 hours)

- Good points:
- + Powerful +Good design +Loads of HDD space +Nice construction +Good keypad +Able to play games (BFBC2) +USB 3.0
- Bad points:
- - I have had overheating and crashing issues throughout owning this laptop. Recent driver updates have helped but still not perfect. - Very big and heavy, poor battery life (to be expected) - Can get quite hot - Screen is poor, please take my advice and get the full HD screen. This screen is all washed out.

- Good points:
- It's a beast, I can play any demanding games from Black Ops to GTA IV without over heating or lagging at all...great machine with some really cool pre-loaded apps. I live in a hostel and it's like parking a Ferrari next to a mini cooper compared to other people's laptops here...Awesome :-)
- Bad points:
- It's a little heavy but what do you expect, battery life is also not the best but it's like a v8 engine, uses fuel but the performance is immense!!
