'VGN-FE890N/H thin and light notebook'

'In view of its relatively inexpensive price, this notebook has great features for the money.'

'The whole notebook feels rugged but sleek, thanks to its curved finish.'

'Also featured are a slightly faster, 1.8GHz Intel Pentium M 745 processor and Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005, which gives you greater freedom in capturing, editing, managing, and playing your digital content.'

'The system's 802.11g wireless scores were adequate at both short (19.8Mbps) and long range (1.4Mbps).'

'The system is fully-loaded with connectivity options, including both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and the 15.4in. widescreen display is also impressive.'

'Connectivity options are extensive to say the least, given that accompanying the four USB 2.0 ports, single FireWire, S-Video, 4-in-1 memory card reader, modem, 10/100 Ethernet, PS/2, serial and parallel ports is the now thankfully almost standard 802.11 b/g wireless adapter and Bluetooth.'

'It's the lightest value notebook we reviewed, with a sturdy design.'
