Hello,
I brought new Vaio lap one week ago. That was the only one providing such a config(i7 3G 3612, 4GB@1600Mhz, 7650, 750GB@5400rpm,1366 x 768) at a very competitive price. I went with the Vaio Brand name, over slightly underpriced thoshiba model having nearly the same specs.

Here is the trouble, I am rather unsatisfied with the performances (though I haven't put anything hardcored on it) but the usuall win7 activities including browsing seems way slower than my sandy i3+4Gb@1333Mhz PC.

1. Is a lap inherently slower than a PC with rather lower config??(Even slower than i3..!!)??
2.Does this RAM speed 1600Mhz make any difference at all comparing to 1333??
3.Will the 4Gb suffice, as I gave a 2GB graphics of Ati 7650?? (though usage never gets over 60%)
4.Its chipset is HM76 Express. Does the chipset make any differnce in performance??
5.With all you guys' experiences, do u think a higher end i5 lappy may be a better option than a lower end i7(let alone the games here, just the basic day2day)??
6.Will it be possible to replace the 750Gb with an hybrid HDD with some 32GB SSD.

Answer to all/any of the queries will be greatly helpfull. Thanks in advance

Well what you need to do is reinstall windows from scratch because all the bloat is what is slowing down your system. 4 gb of RAM should suffice if your not doing anything too demanding but since RAM is pretty cheap you might what to throw in another 4GB for those situations where you do need the extra memory.
