Product Shot 2 Like AW series, the Sony VAIO CS Series has a touch sensitive AV control pad, making it easy to watch movies or listen to music without having to use the mouse. It also has a built-in MOTION EYE webcam and microphone like the AW, and comes with a free upgrade to Windows 7. One very unique feature that the CS has is its ability to categorize music and arrange it based on the essence of the owner's mood. The VAIO MusicBox software even allows the consumer to just listen to the chorus of a song with the Chorus playback mode.
