Reviews for the Sony Vaio VGN-NR460E/L
Source: Comp Reviews
Sony's VAIO NR460E/W is one of the few laptops that the company sells for under $750. For this price, you get a fairly substandard system in terms of performance but one that has a large amount of style. This will probably be the most dertmining factor of whether an individual will purchase it over another budget laptop computer.
