I own The earlier version of this product. VGN360-P/C and the customer support has been horrible. from the first tier tech's that know absolutely nothing to the supervisors that just plain don't care.
THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE.
I will never buy another Sony product again.
 S460 the perfect compromise June 14, 2007
I've put thousands of hours on my S460 in the last two years - all of them without the slightest of problem. Processor speed is outstanding for all but the most intense calculation environments, and the nVidia GO6200 graphics are more than capable of great 3D action. The fan/heat output on the right side is present, but has never presented the slightest of problems...I really can't imagine what some are complaining about...that heat needs to go somewhere - outside of the case - it's not like the Pentium M or other components are elctronically inefficent relatively speaking.
Good overall laptop April 16, 2007

I have owned this laptop for about 2 1/2 yrs, it's a good overall computer. With only two real flaws. The computer gets too hot and it does have a noisey fan. I owned a Z505 sony vaio for many years and it had the same problem. It seems sony does not think this too important or they would have fixed this. Other than that I like everything else.
 Love my little vaio April 9, 2007

I have had my laptop for about 2 years, and never been happier. I was shocked to read reviews about how hot it gets and the noise, clearly those people have never owned a Dell. The heat isn't that bad compared to all the other laptops I have used. Also the fan I never noticed until I read the reviews....
I love the fact the s460 is so light and easy to move around. I travel a lot and it takes up no space and can easily be held with one hand.
Being a college student I am around many other laptops, and mine in the two years has managed to out live all the others. (Strangly including all the macs.) For a little thing that is dragged across the country all the time, it has managed very well.
Perfect Selection December 29, 2006

I got this notebook July 2005. I love it and anyone who sees it with me adores its sleekness, compactness and xbright screen. I had my worries when I bought it regarding the heating issue, Sony told me this is a notebook and not a laptop. Anyways, I have been a VAIO User ever since I started using laptops, so I was kind of used to the heating thing. It is quick, light, very easy to use..
The drawback that I see is the lack of enough ports. No infra red, no bluetooth, no Video outlet, only two USB ports, kind if frustrating, till you get used to it..But.. you can't ask for everything. Tell you what????It is a VAIO. You can't compare anything with it.
