You get much better bang for buck with the Asus. It's a nice machine imo. One thing to be aware of is battery life on Asus laptops always falls short compared to other brands. Not sure why but it is a common complaint. Sony is nice but like anything they produce... it is overpriced.
In the 14" range you are looking at business notebooks so that really limits your choices since you are in a hurry. But as long as you don't need to rely on battery life for hours the Asus will do you nicely :)
