Better than I imagined! This computer is everything I thought it would be, and more. The setup was fast and easy. The speed is outstanding, and the sharpness is greater than any computer I've every seen or used. I'm still learning all of the numerous features, and I was leery of switching from XP to Vista. Put your fears to rest, Vista is very user friendly! March 26, 2009
troublesome Speed and Picture Quality are great. Two weeks in the shop to be fixed after crash not so good. Wireless mouse and keyboard are problematic. First SONY I have had trouble with. March 4, 2009
Sony has done it again. Best product in its class I researched several computer for my home/office computer abd this was the best. February 10, 2009
student This Sony PC/TV does everything Sony promise. starting with large screen to powerful PC. It is really awesome. Setting is easy.so far i love this. Sometimes its give me hard time to connect the wireless keyboard and mice. people says the con of this system is, there is no numeric key. I tell them, there is so many pros is this PC, only one con can't ruin its reputation. Only one competitor this PC has. It can be HP touch smart Q816. but in my personal experience says, touchscreen sensitivity fade over time. and compare to media Sony got the best one out there. we all know that. right? And i like Windows over MAC. So if you like Windows, and looking for a PC/TV this is the best one. Sony RT series is also a powerful PC. But its look very bulky looking. January 6, 2009
