Sony Vaio vs. Dell E1505
by Skatersev - 6/4/07 8:59 AMAny suggestions as to the Sony Vaio FE or FZ series versus the Dell E1505. The Sonys seem to have much better graphics cards at relatively the same price as the dell, but not as nice of screens. I do plan on buying a 22" Samsung for home, though, so maybe that's not so important to me...
i went with the fz

Between those two.......

about the graphics card

I believe this graphics card is mostly for people who get the blueray drive for HD movies, however in cnets quake 4 test, the FZ performed remarkably better then the dell(http://reviews.cnet.com/laptops/sony-vaio-fz180/4505-3121_7-32465689.html?tag=prod.txt.1). Not to mention sony has assured me this is dedicated memory. Either way your probably right when you say you will be paying more for the sony then the dell... but i believe your getting a better machine.
sorry it was bothering me

They will have Santa-Rosa and a DirextX10 GPU ( see page 4 for specs for all new models ).
I have a Dell E1505. Very good laptop ( CD T2300, 1.5 GB RAM, 80+250 GB HDD, ATI MR X1400, 986 points in 3DMark06 ).
