Sony's support is real crap. I've had a few contacts with them over various issues. Nothing serious yet but annoying (like the missing option to turn off boot-up numlock in the bios, lcd dimming only after the OS is fully loaded etc). So I don't think I'll get another Vaio. Though I have to admit after it runs SXCE quite nicely (except suspend/resume) I quite like the beast... Bernd -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
