I guess that's possible, but I'm a Computer Science major and I had terrible issues. My girlfriends best friend is also very tech savvy, and I know she has sworn off of HP's as well, plus the people at Prof's work that he mentioned.

I think with Sony you end up paying a little more for style, similar to how you pay more to own a mac because of how it looks.

If that's not something you care about, I would probably take a serious look at Asus laptops. If I didn't have a sony I would probably get one of those.
