A lot of people told me to get a Vaio..I've never seen one this cheap...what's wrong with it??

Answers:
Ah - my one area of expertise.

If you want to run Vista then you really need 2GB RAM. But everything else looks OK. You can always upgrade this once you've bought it

If it is actually those specs when you buy it and it's not just a big con then the actual computer is great! Looks like your getting a good deal! Not sure what they're tech support is like but happy using!

The graphics aren't the best but as you want it for school I doubt you'll be playing enough games on it to notice.

Viaos do come cheaper but this is not a bad model. Definitely go for it if you trust the shop with your credit card!
Its not that cheap. They come a lot cheaper. Thats a very good choice. Plenty of memory and a good processor. No software with this one though
It's a great deal, boost the RAM to 2GBs right away and it will do school better than you.
plenty

1gb of memory on windows vista (you'll want at least 2gb's)

integrated intel graphics (don't expect to play too many games)

older cpu chipset (no built-in bluetooth support, no wireless-n support, slower FSB)

the cpu itself is slower than most
nothing wrong. just good deal
If you use the computer for microsoft office or internet... it is very good enough. But if you want run some more the hard program such photoshop, or 3d game. you will difficult to run it to your computer
