Welcome
Relisted due to a time waster
You are viewing Sony’s last year’s FLAGSHIP VAIO, this beauty is my uncle’s laptop. He is 79 years young and it cost him €3,000 a year ago. The price sticker (€2998.99) is still on the original box. It comes with all the original factory supplied items. The specs stickers have been removed from the palm-rest but will be enclosed.
He has turned this laptop on about once a month, so it is hardly used and still in an excellent condition considering it is a year old.
It came with Vista Ultimate (sticker is still on the base) and he had the shop upgrade it to Windows 7 Ultimate.
The recovery partition still has the original Vista Ultimate factory installed files. The original installed software alone is worth the purchase price. He had every piece of software anyone needs installed since then, including;
MS Office 2007, Adobe CS4, Power DVD 9, Nero burner software, CorelDraw, Roxio Easy Media Creator, Picasa, Google Gadgets, the list is endless.......
This Vaio, has all the features to keep the owner fully entertained, It comes with a 17” X-Black twin-lamp Screen with AverMedia Hybrid Digital/Analogue TV Tuner, a Blu-Ray DVD Rewriter and a full function Sony IR Remote control for all your viewing pleasures.
And for the gaming enthusiast it boasts the Outstanding NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT graphics card for a fantastic display.
This BIG BOY has a 500GB hard drive, 2GB Ram, Intel Centrino T7700 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo, a Motion Eye WebCam, Infra red, Bluetooth, 2.4GHz WiFi, Sigmatel High definition Audio, a magic gate card reader, a 1080 HD, a fire-wire, a fax modem and a PCMCIA adapter.
Windows 7 and the keyboard are both English and Greek, other languages can be easily added, as Windows 7 does not need to be replaced just to have a different Display language.
Please don’t be fooled by other Vaios selling “New” for half the price, it is because they have half the power and capability. Windows 7 Ultimate will blow your mind with its power, speed and user interface, once you've used it for a short while, you will never go back to anything else.
