New laptop...

So, I'm looking at getting a laptop... I'm currently liking the look of the Sony Vaio AR51E, it's around £800 with a 2ghz core 2 duo processor, 2gb Ram, 200GB HDD and a 17" screen. Any suggestions are much appreciated.

Eh. Could be better. But your Processor and Ram are quite nice. If you can find it for around £700 then I'd totally go for that.

The screen has a maximum resolution of 1280x1024 so it's 4:3 not 16:9 (widescreen). It could in theory run on 1280x720p but you would get black bars at the bottom and top, and on a 17 inch monitor it wouldn't make much difference if it was SD or HD.
