I even returned my VAIO the first week to see if something was wrong and they returned it to me saying it was fine... I guess I'm used to the noise now but at first it drove me crazy! my friend owned a VAIO a couple of years ago and it was also very noisy...

Can't be as noisy as the Compaq. I ordered this one at lunch hour on an impulse, rather than waiting because the stock seems to be disappearing quickly:

Sony's website claims a 750GB HDD though, and it's OOS on there. Oh well, It's more than enough space considering I have 2.5 TB of external storage anyways, plud my desktop. All the heavy duty media consumption's going to be done via my desktop, so an i5, 6gb RAM (expandable to 8) and 512mb graphics card memory is more than enough, as I need something bigger than a 10" netbook for word processing larger documents.
