Hi,

I need a laptop, as my current HP dv6500 series laptop is almost dying. It is overheating, have been crashing a lot lately and slows down a lot if I have to run a lot of apps simultaneously.

I just saw this Sony Viao model (F-series).

I was hoping to go for 6 GB RAM instead for standard 4 GB (will cost $100) and also upgrade the Graphics card.

What do you think of this model? Will you recommend it? If yes, will you recommend for RAM up-gradation? Or any other model or even manufacturer (except HP), with almost identical configuration and equal/lesser price?

Thank you.
