    The 15" display with that resolution is bit small, i´ve one similar.

    I think that the video card is adjusted...

    and the mecanical HD is the slower component of the laptop... if you can, buy a SSD HD.

    thanks for your response.

    the SSD drive from sony has a maximum capcity of 128GB , I don't think this is enough storage for me ??

    I agree with Jose, get a solid state drive. Have had one in my portable desktop system for a year and have been pleased with performance.
