Sony VAIO VGN-AW11XU/Q Review

Overall Rating

The Sony VGN-AW11XU, I use this laptop every day for work. The screen is very good. The space bar on the keyboard is a bit hit and miss. You can press the space bar in certian areas (Right hand corner does it for me) and sometimes this doesn't register and you end up with joinedupsentences. It might just be my laptop.

I also find that if you're RDP'ing onto another server the volume controls on the keyboard don't work, so you end up having to flick between the local laptop and the server to turn itunes up and down. Probably not a problem for most users, but the touch sensitive buttons can override the RDP, why not the sound controls?

The touch sensitive controls at the top of the keyboard are great, although when working I do sometime trigger the AV mode which results in a banner appearing at the top of the screen. I haven't figured out how to disable these yet.
