Sony VAIO P Series

Slim and fashionable. Sony released a simple truth of ultra-portable computing named VAIO P Series: for all its beauty, elegant hardware packed into a diminutive chassis will never make up for a perpetually sluggish OS, at least not for long.

While it comes late to this understanding, Sony is finally making XP a standard load on its new VAIO P model VGN-P50. Not exactly aspirational, mind you, and very netbook-like... but at least it gets the OS out of the way of your applications unlike the original VAIO P Vista build. Any by not having to downgrade yourselves (or upgrade to Windows 7 RC), you'll keep all of Sony's optimizations like the VAIO P's XMB interface.

Model Features:
8" display with XBRITE-ECO™ LCD technology, 2GB RAM, 60GB HDD, 1.5 lbs., GPS, integrated mobile broadband

Choosing Laptops on Features

Many laptops these days have a wide screen with a ratio of 16:10. This gives many more images - ideal for watching DVDs - and good clarity, but not for those who need portability. And if you think that you can take this wonderful little portable overlooks the beach and do your job, think again. Despite the advertisement showing a bikini-clad daughter computers on the beach, most of the screens are almost impossible to see in sunlight. LCDs are better nature, but relatively low look inside, and are difficult to find, however. The best choice would be one with a matt surface so that it can at least reduce the glare.

Another requirement for the implementation is pretty decent memory. You can add more memory, like taking your notebook memory available. 1 GB is sufficient to run Vista, 2GB, but it's better for things like 3D gaming, video editing and graphics work. You can get away with 512 MB if you do something only as a variant of Linux. But you can not do much else with it.

Try before you buy is a good rule to remember when choosing a laptop. Would you like to be able to use it without too much discomfort and sacrifice of very small size of ergonomics. This means that you can get cramps in hands and fingers if you use too long.
