I think you are either mistaken or misled. I own two Sony notebooks, and
neither have exhibited the behaviour you have described. The one problem I
have with my PCG-505TS is one of the hinges is lose, and that is due to
opening and closing the lid several times a day for two years.
I currently carry around a PCG-SR17. The 505TS is now my personal news
server at home, and sits there on a shelf, running 24x7, and has been like
that for four or five months now.
There are also several Sony notebooks roaming around where I work,
including a Picture Book model. Only one has failed, and that was a
defective battery pack.
