    These are fairly similar laptops. My answer would sway mostly by price. By looking at the specs, I'd choose Dell 1555 for the better processor. The Sony's specs are much missing though...

    What are you using the computer for?

    Dells also tend to be more reliable and sturdy according to Cnet stats

    If you send me a price range and what you'll be using it for, I might be able to help more.

    It looks like your looking at around 700-900 dollars, hard to tell from a custom configuration, so personally I would choose a Toshiba Satellite T135-S1310. For a multimedia laptop, you may want to invest in a Qosmio. It is a little more expensive though.

    Dell XPS 17 is a top efficiency gaming pc and I tremendously suggest it over the Sony one. I have not met the sony but and are not able to supply feedback approximately it. Although the Dell one is extra costly, it have a higher importance for cash.
