Sony VAIO CR
$1,200.00
Released March, 2008
The Pros:Light weight and well balanced for easy carrying. Build quality feels sturdy, no creaking or flex. Gloss finish and detailing is stylish, resists fingerprints more than most gloss finishes.
The Cons:Ships with a large selection of software of limited appeal that will take hours to uninstall. Graphics processing is too weak for most 3D gaming purposes. Battery life isn't too bad, but not nearly as long as the advertised 4.5 hours.
The Sony VAIO CR series are stylish 14.1" widescreen LCD notebooks with XBRITE-ECO LCD designed for the student or aesthetic minded person. The CR series comes in an array of cool colors like indigo blue, sangria, cosmopolitan and dove.
