Sony VAIO VGN-A790

Laptop Magazine has a look at the VGN-A790, a nice, but expensive laptop from Sony.

The question isn’t what Sony’s VAIO VGN-A790 does, so much as, what doesn’t it do? This multimedia monster rivals most fully loaded desktops, with a 2-GHz Centrino CPU, a full gigabyte of memory, and a glossy 17-inch widescreen display. You also get a docking station with a built-in TV tuner, so you can record your favorite shows onto the 100GB hard drive, and a set of external speakers. With so many parts required to get the full experience, you may be better off buying a slim desktop or a notebook with a TV tuner built in.

I would still love to have this machine, though I doubt the batter time is where I would want it to be, it would make a great desktop replacement, especially since it is more powerful than my current desktop machine.
