Update Sony Vaio P

It’s now been almost 3 weeks since I got my Vaio P.  It’s really a great little laptop.  I once had a Asus EeePC 701 and this little dude kicks his ass.  Ok, It’s not a great comparaison, I know, first gen Netbook vs a brand new one.  But this is only what I have used.

I did try to install Linux on it, but the Vesa resolution isn’t that great, it’s slow as hell!  I might as well use Vista.  I’ve thought about using Windows 7, they say it’s faster, but the beta will only work until August.  After that, you need to reinstall Vista or a new version of Windows 7.  Since this is not confirm or anything, I might as well give Vista a try.

Right now, it work ok.  I’ve found how to customize it so it feel good.  Been using it with Cygwin and Console2.  I’ve also installed Google Chrome.  I’ve been using a text editor that looks and feel like Textmate on my Mac.  It’s called E.  With all those Apps, It’s good to use.  And I’m almost not using my MBP anymore.  Well at least for day to day browsing.

Oh, and it’s a great laptop to bring with you anywhere when you’re on duty call.
