Sony Vaio Cr Battery Life

Sony Vaio Cr Battery Life

Windows (Sony Vaio Cr Series) or Mac (MacBook)?

I use laptops to take notes, download and view videos / DVD 's, and surf the net. I do not play games much, but some sites to download stuff that often require Windows Explorer, and price matters a lot to me. That said, a MacBook with Parallels Desktop (Windows XP) better, or CR Sony Vaio with Windows Vista right for me? I used Sony Vaio S260 for a few years and it works fine, except by the very strong fan noise. I like Vaios in general, and I've always used computers, but it's time to switch to Mac? I played with both and here are some ideas that had: MacBook keyboard is a bit awkward to use. Keyboard Vaio CR is quieter and more comfortable. Vaio CR Bright display makes it bad for outdoor use. MacBook has better battery life (3-4 hours vs 2.3 hours). MacBook has little room for upgrades (max 2GB of RAM). VAIO CR comes with 2 GB of RAM for similar price (4 GB maximum). I'm still lost. Please help!

The CR has a loose battery problem, but I would never recommend Mac
