I do not recommend Sony at all.  Not just laptops, but
any of their proprietary 'stuff' (substitute a more
colorful adjective here :)  ).

For many of the VAIOs the issues are resolved when you
include ACPI support and turn off APM support.

It's just that;

a) Sony support for laptops has been horrible  
(returntonature.com)
b) Sony has to b*stardize their sh*t just enough to
make it a bit of work to get it to work (such as
'iLink' instead of true 1394, etc.)

anyways, I've got a VAI GRX560 and everything works,
but after much tinkering and ACPI support.  Definitely
not worth the hassle, but the 1600x1200 display is
great.
