Sony VAIO VGN-P39J/U Battery

The game performance is, because of the integrated video card GMA 950, relatively poor. Current games can either be badly played or not played at all. If one wants to play, one should rather look for another notebook (Performance class 1-3). Sony VAIO VGN-P39J/U Battery

The strengthes of Sony's beginners notebook are in the fields of noise and temperature emissions. The fan hardly ever runs, therefore, the FE-N11M stays almost always very quiet at 30.9 dB. Even, if the fan starts to run after a longer period of full load the noise is low at 36-37 dB. Even this noise is not unpleasing. Sony VAIO VGN-P11Z/G Battery

Rarely running fans often cause a heat accumulation inside the case, which leads to a higher surface temperature. This Sony notebook is a laudable exception and stays cool. In average we measured 30°C during our review. Therefore, the notebook seems to be even cool. Sony VAIO VGN-P11Z/Q Charger

We are sorry that we could not measure the exact battery runtime due to lack of time. Sony specifies a maximum runtime of 225 minutes. These are 5 minutes more than the 220 minutes specified for the FE31B, which we reviewed. Therefore one may reckon that it has a slightly longer runtime. It can be assumed that the battery runtime is between 1.5 and 3 hours. Well, this aren't really record values, however, this is the price for the very bright display. Sony VAIO VGN-P11Z/R Battery

If one disregards the design, the customer gets a quiet, cool office notebook with bright screen and good input devices. A weak point are the case's creaking noises and the moderate number of ports (only 2x USB and no TV-Out). The performance is for non-demanding applications (surfing, office) sufficient, but the small main memory, which is also downsized by the integrated video card, additionally slows the notebook down. We would recommend to use the N11S with 100GB hard disk and 1024MB RAM for demanding work. Sony VAIO VGN-P13GH/Q Charger

Sonys current design of the FE series pleases the eyes and is popular. "Never change a running system" - This might be one of the reasons, why the F41 is - at least regarding its case - equal to the F31 series. Sony VAIO VGN-P13GH/W Battery

However, the operating system is different. The Sony Vaio FE41Z comes with Microsoft's latest development, Windows Vista. I do not want to discuss about it in detail, still I cant deny myself of writing some paragraphs about it. Sony VAIO VGN-P15G/G Charger

Everybody has presumably already heard a lot about Vista, and made up his/her own thoughts and expectations. I personally watched the whole Vista hype relatively calmly, because I was inherently satisfied with XP and the operating system is only a means to an end for me... Sony VAIO VGN-P15G/Q Battery

What are your first impressions of Vista? Were your expectations satisfied, or are you already waiting for a service pack, which is hopefully available soon.But let's return to the reviewed notebook, the Sony Fe41z. As already mentioned the design is typical Sony and goes down well.

The base unit out of magnesium gives the notebook a flexural rigidity and robustness which is worth-seeing. Because even the display cover is out of magnesium, the display is especially flexural rigid. Sony VAIO VGN-P15G/R Charger
