So this guy bought a brand new Sony Vaio instead of letting me build him a computer. So he wants a new video card. I tell him ok, no prob. Go to his house, crack open the tower and explain to him that after the monetary conversion, the freight, and all the other charges, that not only would my system be about the same price, but it could handle high end video cards.
His state-of-the-art Vaio HAS NO AGP SLOT!
WTF was Sony thinking? When you look at the mobo, you can see an outline, and dots for pins, and it says AGP, but the buggers never put one on this mobo.
I call Sony, Tech support says any card will work (even after telling him there was no AGP port) and to call another number to order. I call the number, they direct me to tech support, who directs me to the ordering number. I ask the lady to list what video cards there are available for this model. She replies with "Just the intergrated video" Which confrimed my first thought. Sony is ignorant.
