I'm going to buy myself a new laptop for my MBA degree. price is not an issue. I do a little more inclination towards the sony vaios as i find them very attractive. Now, my nuts are on the vaio x (aka SIZE zero laptop). Now, according to this big review it does not has that nice battery life as advertized on their website.

I won't be doing too much of programming on it as my studies do not involve all that. what I want is good battery life from my laptop. I, initially heard that vaio x would have extremely good battery life, but that is not the case here. I then contacted sony and they told me that I need to buy that one separately. what a rip off! What do u experts suggest?

btw... thanks for the reply rang_varma. adn the really the gigabyte model looks great. :)

but i am going to go with desibond's advise on it. it IS a new company in the field of notebooks... and am not exactly a fan of its desktop parts as well. But who knows.. i mean i am using an MSI notebook myself... :p One year gone and am much happier than many ppl are with acer dell or hp ones. ;)
Still... cant take a risk with someone else's lappie. I would always recommend her something which has a good support backing it up, cause i wont be there to help out with its problems all the time... if u know what i mean.. :)

Valid concern,... but Gigabyte holds over 25% market share in Motherboards in India, so they have a good infrastructure in India.
RT outsourcing is their After sales Service provider. RT outsourcing is the largest specialized Service provider in India.
