VAIO on graphic design

Hi there!
Am I the only one in the world that use a PC (VAIO) for graphic design?

Would love to share experience and problems!

Thanks

No, you're not alone, I used to do quite a bit, not really had the time lately, but it was always fun.

Remember to save often

Well as a professional for the last 15 years I am very happy with the Vaio hardware. Mac is of course far superior but PC versions of CS2 and Macromedia Studio 8 give you more functionality.
Make sure your colour swatches match you printers and use a CRT monitor with the adobe gamma preferances loaded correctly. LCD's are great but give you artifical colours.
You really need 1 gig of RAM for these two suites to work properly and as the 'Lo says Save Save save

No you are not the only one. I use it a lot too.(Especially for new Sony Product ads). My Vaio struggels a bit with the amount of RAM I have.
