Comments about Sony VAIO EH2 VPCEH2DFX/B 15.5" Notebook Computer (Black):
Basically a surfer that does some household computing - pictures with PS Elements, minor bookkeeping including for a rental home and fraternal club, gaming and other misc. stuff.
Have bought several of another brand over time & kept having hardware and service issues. A friend who works on computers and is quite knowledgeable suggested the Sony. Having enjoyed the service from B&H with camera buys looked at the offerings on their website, called to discuss alternatives and bought.
Happy with the Sony (love the 10 key on the side- what I learned with)for size & ease of set up, enjoyed the B&H usual high quality of service, and had a problem free experience replicating what I had before.
The only issues are there is no USB3 (though there are 4 USB2 ports) and three of those ports are on the right side where cords & devices get in the way of the mouse, calculator, and notepads.

Comments about Sony VAIO EH2 VPCEH2DFX/B 15.5" Notebook Computer (Black):
This is my first purchase from B&H and I am very happy with their service. I searched everywhere for the best price for this laptop and B&H had it plus free shipping. Two days latter it was at my door, wow that was fast!
This is my first Sony VAIO and for the price I think it is a very good computer. it was easy to set-up and the 2.4GHz Intel Core i5-2430M Dual Core CPU is very fast (It seems to be faster than my Quad Core). It feels very light for it's size and it's diamond pattern which resists fingerprints looks beautiful
I'm disappointed with the screen though it has a limited viewing angle. You have to tilt it at a certain angle to be able to see it clearly, otherwise it washes out.
I have mine hooked to an external monitor via the HDMI output(which solves the screen problem). I also have a wireless mouse and external backlit keyboard. So basically I'm using it as a Desktop but I can grab it and go if needs be.
Overall I'm happy with the purchase. I would say that the quality at this price point is better than any of the other brands(I checked them out at a local store before I bought it online) and I would recommend it.
