Sony .. You pay for the name
Lenovo .. The council laptop .. Ugly and aimed at business users

Consider Dell, Toshiba or Hp

i3 or I5 processors you don't need an i7
You should get a decent hard disk for that price 500gig +
Think of getting 4gig + ram
Think on what screen size you want ... 15 is the norm but I prefer bigg but this is not exactly portable
go windows 7

Remember to factor in BACKUPS and a good shock foam case.
You already have an external hard drive but may need a bigger one.
I got a good case for my laptop and (having upgraded the RAM, cpu & hard drive and bought it a new battery last year) it is still going fine.
... must now set up backups myself.

I've just bought this

http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/hp-pavilion-g6-1241sa-15-6-laptop-red-11361456-pdt.html

and have been very happy with it so far

They appear to have put the price up by 30 quid since I bought it earlier in the week so this also makes me
