It used to be hard to find a good laptop for under a grand, now it's becoming the norm. Sony takes a stab at this market, and tries to add some style in the process. But does it work?
Snip:
"Sony’s NR notebooks are designed to be affordable, fashionable, and decent all-around PCs that aren’t bottom of the barrel nor top-of-the-line. Think “midrange notebook” with a fancy shell. They are available in three different colors, have a unique textured surface, and are middle-of-the-road in terms of specs and performance. Though we like the aesthetic the NR’s a bit sluggish and has a ton of bloatware (pre-loaded software that eats up precious resources). Though it would be semi-easy to remedy these two negatives, out of the box the NR is a smidge disappointing."
