User Review’s

“Not only is Sony’s new VAIO VGN-AR190G Digital Studio the first notebook to feature Blu-ray technology, it’s also one of the best equipped multimedia notebooks around. Of course, treating yourself to the latest technology comes at a cost; in this case, you’ll pay a whopping £1800 for the privilege. The 1.3-inch-thick VGN-AR190G is visually stunning in more ways than one. Its sleek-looking glossy black exterior is offset by a silver VAIO logo with matching silver trim and port covers, but it’s the 17-inch widescreen display that really catches the eye.”

“This is a well-rounded desktop replacement laptop with a good list of features and reasonable performance. However, the placement of the trackpad and mouse buttons in relation to the keyboard is a real source of annoyance, as neither of these is properly accessible while you type”
