| markbyrn's Full Review: Sony VAIO GRX560 PC Notebook |
I specifically purchased the GRX560 to replace my desktop while I was posted overseas. Although I won't discount others who have experienced problems with this particular model, my machine has been very reliable with extremely heavy usage and rough handling on the road. The most attractive aspect of this model is the excellent video and large screen size which makes it suitable as a desktop replacement. On the minus side, I was surprised to find that a floppy drive was not included and the keyboard is of marginal quality.
UPDATE: Almost 3 years after purchase, the LCD monitor failed and needed replacement. Fortunate for me, I had purchased the 3 year extended warranty.
