Daily Usage Today
The VPCSA is still usable today, and can be used for most tasks including non intensive or older games thanks to the discrete GPU (Sony really loves putting them in these small laptops). Unfortunately, the Sony drivers don't work on Windows 10 so you will need to use the modded Leshcatlabs drivers to get proper GPU switching functionality. It is strongly recommended to repaste the laptop as they tend to run extremely hot and loud and also upgrade to at least 8GB RAM.
