Yet Another Laptop Doubt..

2tan · 2nd February 2009

First of all, hello everyone!!

I would like to ask all the pros what u think of the VAIO VGN-CS11S/W?

I really think its a great machine and it will probably run all apps i use with no prblem, BTW i use Ableton rewired with Reason 4, VST's like Rob Papen Blue & Predator, Guitar Rig and a couple of mastering vst's..

What i would like to ask is if the Firewire is TI Chipset? Cause i can't find that info anywhere....

This question main purpose is because i will most certainly buy a Korg Zero 8 as soon as they release a "trouble free" update unit and i will link it via Firewire...
I don't understand much but for what i have read here, TI Chipset is recomended...

As it will be my first laptop i may not be choosing right so if u have any alternatives to this one in the same price range i will definitly thank u for them!

Oh... and i will remain on a PC platform... its a place where i feel very comfortable with my work flow....

Thanks for time lost here....

I like the Toshibas better. If you want to know what the firewire chip is go to the store and look in the device manger for it.

Yes i know... but living in Coimbra, Portugal , unfortunately it's not easy to find the notebook, i haven't found one in stores yet... only on the internet...
