 Sony Warranty Stinks............will not honor their commitment Feb 16, 2009
I bought this all-in-one computer from Sony after a lot of research to replace my old computer and TV. After overcoming some initial issues with Vista, the system was worked well. Then all of a sudden the monitor display would not come if I recovered the machine from "sleep" mode. I had to manually switch on the monitor. This happened every so often. Then one day the monitor refused to come on at all. All the while the computer was working fine but there was no monitor to see the display.
This is when I called Sony for help. They first mis-diagonized the problem and had someone come out and replace the motherboard (which was totally unnecessary), and the problem remained the same.
I called up sony and they refused to fix the machine after that. They said that after the previous repair they were not going to make an attempt to fix the problem as it would cost more than the original price of the machine and decided to send me the remainder of the value, which is no where near enough to buy a equivalent new computer.
Don't ever go for a Sony Warranty ... it stinks and Sony does not honor up to replaceing the equipment.
Very disappointed Sony User........ Sony does not honor the warranty

 DESIGNED FROM THE GROUND UP TO BE JUNK Jan 23, 2009
Worst PC I've ever bought.
This hunk-o-junk was a POS from the 2nd day I had it.
Countless crashes, VISTA CAN NOT RUN ON LESS THAN 3GB OF RAM!!! This unit has only 2gb, and to make this thing a genuine boat anchor? The fact that it's architecture is incompatible with any other OS. THAT'S RIGHT! It's incompatible with all software OS's, and it can not run THE VERY OS SYSTEM IT WAS DESIGNED FOR!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sony's All-in-ones are worthless garbage. Buy ANYONE'S All-in-ones before you buy a Sony.

sony vaio VGC LS 30E Dec 31, 2008
This product is a piece of trash. My father-in-law bought one for my wife and his 3 other daughters. This computer never worked right from the day we got it. Expensive. It came with virtually no software. Nothing works on it other than e-mail and internet. The tv tuner function worked for about one week and quit. The web cam never worked. Tried multiple times to work with Sony's tech support and they were never able to help solve any of the problems. My son has a masters in computer science and computer engineering. He was unable to get anything to work. He suggested deleting windows and re-installing. Only one problem. They don't give you any disks with the computer, so there is no way to re-install. The other three sister with the same computer all had the same problems. One had the computer keep crashing from day one and was never able to even use it. Overall I have decided I would never buy another Sony product in my life after the nightmare experience with this product!

 very happy Sep 06, 2008
Sony Vaio VGC-LS37E Desktop PC fulfills everything I wanted of it. Set-up was very easy (and I'm no techie when it comes to computers). Picture quality is excellent.Haven't really tested the sound quality, but have recently purchased an add on sound system to complete the system. I was attracted to this product primarily because of its entertainment system especially the TV alternative. I had been considering purchasing a new counter top TV to replace the current 12 year set.The February 17, 2009 HDTV conversion date being the primary impetus. This product thus saved me anywhere from $250 to $450. As I view it, the already bargain purchase has cost me that much less. The monitor design allows me to fit a 19 in screen into a very tight space. In summary, very happy with my purchase and very happy with Amazon service, quality, price and shipping alerts. Would highly recommend this product.

Not PERFECTO but overall great machine! Bravo Sony! May 31, 2008
I have VAIO VGC-LS35E model which is slightly different: it have more powerful processor Core2 Duo T7200 2.0 MHz, larger hard drive 320GB 7200RPM SATA and Vista Premium. Kind of difficult to figure out whole setup but finally it's on desk, looks stylish and smooth. Laptop-like keyboard, switches off automatically if you forget to do. Had to replays that Sony calls mouse with Logitech MX Revolution Wireless, rechargeable battery lasts for more than a week. It is really a bomb! Nice features like Build-in Wi-Fi, memory card reader, TV tuner, Web Cam, Remote, USB and FireWire ports, overall great entertainment pc!
Pros: all in one, lots of power, roomy hard drive, build-in Wi-Fi, TV tuner and remote.
Cons: lack of documentation, detailed instructions how to pair keyboard and mouse, only 4 USB ports and One FireWire, glossy Display which it makes it difficult to use in bright room, cheap speakers, difficult to read keyboard display (Caps Lock on/off), not upgradable memory or anything, noisy DVD drive.
