    Sony VAIO RA840G Desktop Computer

    By Allie  Oct 30, 2006

    Pros: All.

    Cons: None

    This is my new baby AKA Sony VAIO RA840G Desktop Computer that was given to me as an early Hanukah gift last month from a relative of mine who bought one of these awhile back. Otherwise I am loving it and highly recommending it to all my friends when... they ask me about what kind of desktop do I use or about my new desktop. I also agree with you all out they’re in Yahoo land to put the newest desktop on your bedroom at home and my old Dell desktop is in the family room/TV room/game room for the rest of the household. Plus that it can’t always hurt to own 2 desktops then just one AND yes to a friend who works for Yahoo I am taking his advice and putting one of old Dell desktops on EBay since I really only need 2 computer desktops and not 3 desktops.
