I do a lot of home/small business stuff when I'm not at my day job, and that involves a lot of Windows, and whatever computer someone picked up at a big box store. Sony is consistently a pain in the rear end when it comes to laptops and desktops.  They always use oddball chipsets for audio, video, and LAN, then they won't release driver updates for any version of Windows that comes out later...sometimes problems introduced with service packs won't get resolved with driver updates.
