Entertainment seekers in search of a notebook that offers Blu-ray playback, solid performance, and plenty of style will find a lot to like in the Sony VGP-BPS8 Battery. Priced at a reasonable $879 (as low as $799 online), this machine comes packed with a wealth of features, as well as a sharp 15.5-inch display—although you’ll need to use the HDMI port and an external monitor or TV to get the full 1080p experience. Those looking for more graphics oomph will want to opt for a different configuration of this system, but overall is a satisfying multimedia laptop.
Design
The first thing you’ll notice about the 14.6 x 9.8 x 1.2-inch, Walnut Brown  is the cool faux-wood design on the lid, which extends to the base of the system. If you’re not keen on this look, also offers the system in in Birch White and Silver Rattan. Owing to the NW’s “waved body” design, the keyboard resides in a slight depression, but it didn’t negatively impact our typing.
Above and to the right of the keyboard are a row of buttons that let us launch the Splashtop instant-on browser (which allows users access to the Web while avoiding Vista’s lengthy boot times), mute the speakers, and turn the display off (for when you’re using the notebook only to listen to music, for example). We would have liked to see dedicated volume controls, but it’s easy enough to adjust with function keys. At 5.6 pounds, isn’t a system you’ll want to constantly keep in tow, but it’s certainly light enough to easily move from room to room.
Keyboard and Touchpad
The island-style keyboard on the VAIO NW is roomy and comfortable, which as .htmmade for a pleasurable typing experience. The keys are flat and springy; the layout lacks a full number pad, but that’s far from a dealbreaker on a multimedia notebook.
A 3.3 x 2.5-inch textured touchpad below the keyboard offered just the right amount of resistance; it was neither too slippery nor too friction-heavy. That let us zip the cursor across the screen with ease. We also liked the two raised touchpad buttons, which had a firm feel Sony VGP-BPS2C.
Display and Audio
The glossy, 15.5-inch (1366 x 768-pixel resolution) display uses Sony’s X-Brite Eco technology, which lengthens battery as life by using one backlight instead of the two in the regular X-Brite displays. The 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio offered plenty of real estate for crafting documents and reading Web pages. The viewing angles were fairly decent; two people can watch a video simultaneously, but as you move farther from the center, you’ll encounter more reflections.
Overall, the sound that emanated from the speakers was quite crisp; we loved the crackle of the gunfire exchanges and the sounds of helicopter blades were nice and chunky. The maximum volume and bass may not be enough for those who like to rattle rooms, but we found the audio sufficiently loud and clear when watching movies or streaming ‘90s alternative music from Slacker.
Blu-ray Playback
The VAIO NW is one of the least expensive notebooks yet that offers an integrated Blu-ray drive. The notebook itself supports only 720p playback, but we like what we saw when we popped in our We Were Soldiers Blu-ray. Night scenes, for example, showed the appropriate amount of black without losing detail.
When we output the video via HDMI to a 32-inch Samsung monitor, was able to deftly handle our flick’s fast-moving action scenes at 1080p resolution. The appeal of Blu-ray on this (or any notebook) will come down to how convenient it is for you to hook the system up to a large TV or monitor that can take full advantage of the format’s capabilities.
Ports and Webcam
is packed with a fair number of connectivity options for hooking up accessories and peripherals. Built into the right side of the system is the aforementioned 2X Blu-ray drive (with an 8X DVD+/-RW burner), two USB 2.0 ports, and headphone and microphone jacks; its front features two memory card readers (Memory Stick Pro and SD), and a Wi-Fi switch; the left side contains an additional USB port, VGA, HDMI, FireWire 400, Ethernet, and an ExpressCard/34 slot.
Diving face-first into video chats with friends was simple, thanks to the embedded 0.3 MP Motion Eye camera. While chatting with friends using Skype, we enjoyed smooth frame rates that suffered from very little blur. However, we found the colors as —be it clothing or skin tones—to be a bit muted.

Here is some recent news I received on hp motherboard spares #: which is 447805-001 has been upgraded to 440768-001 (I have confirmed this with hp directly) but they are identical to each in every way and just another way for hp Compaq to confuse buyers and make more money I believe.

In case you need a brush up lesson… 440768-001 was the “System board | computer motherboard | Without memory and supports only AMD processor (not included) models – For full-featured laptop PC’s.”

This hp part is only for Compaq Presario V3200, V3300, V3400 and HP Pavilion dv2200, dv2300, dv2400 notebooks.

Side Note: Both laptop motherboards all use the nVIDIA G6150 GPU integrated graphics with NF430 chipset. I know that the the hp laptop motherboard is extremely popular with computer motherboards and that the hp will soon stop producing 447805-001 fully.

This information will come in very handy if you happen to be a owner of this hp Compaq notebook and in need in a laptop motherboard replacement.

Sony Vaio X Series Laptops

 

Sony shocked everyone back at IFA 2009 with the introduction of the X series VAIO notebook, which is the direct successor to the TT series in the USA. It appeared super slim at the time and in its delicious teaser video courtesy of Sony Europe some people got extremely curious about its arrival. Sony revealed the full details on the new VAIO X series and has called it the world’s lightest notebook – at 1.6 pounds with standard battery, measurements at its narrowest point: 10.95 (W) x 0.55 (H – about half an inch thin aka 13.9mm) x 7.29 (D). The VAIO X, due October 22nd, in black and champagne features a durable carbon fiber casing, seamless aluminum keyboard panel and a touch pad with multi-touch functionality. This allows you to easily zoom in and out, flip through pictures, rotate items and scroll vertically and horizontally without ever touching your mouse. There’s also a Motioneye web camera built-in.

Heading downwards, we find a familiar looking keyboard that’s done in chiclet style. Despite the extra space from its almost 12-inch (11.6-inch) frame, the keyboard and key layout still feels tiny for comfortable usage. There’s also quite a bit of flex that does sometimes detract from the typing experience.

Also notable is the Vaio’s touchpad, which supports multi-touch input. This allows gestures such as pinching together two fingers to zoom in, for example. A pair of flip-out feet underneath the chassis lifts it to angle the keyboard when on a desk, and we found the Vaio X Series comfortable to use when sitting on your lap as well, as the screen can be pushed quite far back to a suitable angle.

Moving on to inspect other build aspects of the notebook, we found that the screen quality was great with decent viewing angles and brightness. You’ll find that despite the higher resolution (1366×768), the fonts were still pretty crisp and clear.

If you are a fan of the small Sony laptops, you will have to look at the new range of Sony VAIO X series of notebooks. It weighs just 655 gram. Running on an Intel Atom TM chip that is normally seen in a netbook, the latest Intel AtomTM Processor Z550 has the latest Windows 7 OS and a solid state drive. Out to target business users on the go, the higher range Sony VAIO is 3G enabled for fast online surfing.
The specs are pretty close to what was predicted, but there are a few surprises including a lower-than-expected price. Sony also detailed its upcoming Vaio CW series laptops, which are less expensive than the X series.

Despite its low weight, the X Series still provides a decent range of connectivity options, consisting of 802.11b/g/Draft n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and a built-in Everywair HSDPA modem for wireless broadband, enabling buyers to stay connected virtually anywhere. It also has two USB ports, VGA output, Ethernet connector, headphone jack socket and two slots along its front edge for SD Card and Sony’s own Memory Stick Pro Duo Flash storage cards. As a measure of just how thin the Vaio X series is, a hinged cover forms one half of the Ethernet connector, because the laptop’s chassis is too thin to accommodate a standard size Ethernet jack.

Although we were pleasantly surprised by how usable the X-Series was during a working day, it seems ridiculous to spend this much and have to switch off the graphical effects. Our overall experience would have been a lot more pleasant if the graphics chipset was more powerful, but Intel’s GMA 500 chip is designed for power frugality rather than speed. And this frugality does reap dividends. The X-Series kept going over seven hours when idle, and even when pushed to its limit it kept going for three hours. Considering this whole laptop weighs a miserly 766g (1.05kg with the power supply), that’s a stunning achievement. And if you’re after true stamina, take note of the extended battery Sony will be selling. This straps onto the bottom of the X-Series, and Sony estimates it will last 20 hours. It’s worth stepping back for a moment here: 20 hours!
