Would your student like the Sony S Series laptop?

Ive been blogging about this laptop for about a week now in the hopes that you can make an informed choice about the right laptop for your student.
Parents usually have a few simple questions about this type of purchase:
- Is it affordable?
- Is it durable and dependable?
- Will the laptop last throughout their high school and/or college careers?
Students on the other hand want to know the following:
- Does it have enough memory?
- Is it wireless and does it have a built in camera?
- Can I use it for watching movies, streaming videos, and gaming?
- Are there enough usb ports to plug in all my devices?
- How long will the battery last?
- How much does it weigh since Ill be carting it back and forth to class?
Since my knowledgeable geek colleagues (and I say this with all due respect) have done an amazing job of reviewing the Sony S Series laptop to answer both parent and student questions, Im going to defer to their expertise and post links to all of their informed posts.
