Cadijk van Kaarhandel Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Sorry folks, another “Is this Computer okay for FM2009” thread. Anyway, what do you think of this? Will it be okay for FM2009 and (looking into your Crystal Ball) FM2010, 2011 and 2012???? http://www.vaio.sony.co.uk/view/ShowProduct.action?product=VGN-AW11S%2FB&site=voe_en_GB_cons&category=VN+AW+Series&assetid=1218032875460 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest PW Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Hi when I clicked on the link it didn't appear to come up with anything just a blank page? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PW Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 It appears more than capable of handling FM09 to me as the processor speed, RAM, and Graphics card are more than capable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadijk van Kaarhandel Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 Brilliant thanks. Will take the plunge i think! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigy18181 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 its good and will run it no bother. sony are very over priced in my opinion though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PGB_SPURS_FM09 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Its good but i don't understand why it has a 4200RPM hard-drive, thats lower then the standard!. You could probs get something for cheaper easily! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGN_1982 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Agree with the below - Vastly over priced !!! Looks like me and you are both in the same boat of having to update laptops in order to play FM !!!!! We must be crazy !! You should check out Acer, much better value, looking at around half the price and they are decent also. I have installed in my housemates laptop, 2GB, Intel Centrino 1.7GHZ and the game runs unbelievably quick and that is not even a great laptop Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoey999 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 i wrk in a computer healthcentre, yes the laptop would be fine, but you could get one hell of a desktop for that money!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadijk van Kaarhandel Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 Desktop is not an option, needs to go. Small kids, busy hands. Laptop is how it will be. Is the hard-drive RPM a big issue? What will the effect of that be? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoey999 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 no the hard drive is fine, but I would not get it directly from sony as it is very over priced. try the laptop shop, just type that into google, its where we buy from from Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hursty2 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Have a look on dell.com, they have some good deals on very good laptops and they'll deliver for free. One laptop on there cost $799 AUD, has 2gb ram, good graphics card and lots of other neat features! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWB Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Rather nifty wee laptop, and i do tend to be a fan of Sony. Point to bear in mind though about the disk drive speed, if it's 4200rpm, it's slightly slower so you may find the game run's slightly slower due to the amount of disk access it does. Also, unless you are desperate to spend that amount of money and get the Blu-Ray player, might be worth saving your money and getting a cheaper model. As far as i remember, FM doesn't recognise 4GB RAM anyways so that's not going to make much difference having the extra memory. Good laptop if you really want it, but maybe a bit expensive for what you really need. Only my 2 cents worth. p.s. avoid Acer... not all they cracked up to be... apologies to anyone who likes them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elgreenio Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 take a look at fujitsu siemens, pretty sure they've brought out a new AMILO that has awesome specs for around the same price as the sonys. will try n get a link for ya EDIT : http://www.fujitsu-siemens-shop.co.uk/cmcPage.asp?idPage=1047&mscssid=%7BD22BE068-931E-4B7F-B4FE-9072475A6DC9%7D Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooten Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I have a sony AR71ZU and it is the best laptop I have ever had, and I have had plenty! Good choice with Sony! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike7077 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Don't buy Acer they break easily The company I work for has been using Acers for years. Our contract managers bash them around building sites and let them bang around their cars when they drive. I own an Acer at home. In terms of not breaking, they seem uber-reliable to me.
