Sony VAIO VGN-TZ370


$2,300.00 Released May, 2007

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Functions very well as an ultraportable model - capable of smooth application multitasking and fast download speeds with top-of-the-line hardware options. Keyboard is very comfortable for such a small unit - users familiar with full-sized laptop keyboards are not likely to be disappointed. Battery life is fantastic - unit regularly lasts the entirety of a full work day at medium brightness levels and collapsed when not in use.

The Cons:Not possible to run Sprint WWAN and stock Sony wireless components simultaneously - users hoping to connect to mass storage devices while using the internet are sure to be disappointed. Several users report complete system failure within mere months of use - unit may refuse to boot after as little as 2 months of use.

The Sony VAIO VGN-TZ370 is part of the customizable Sony VAIO series laptops. All of the basic features are the same, the only difference is in RAM(2GB is standard in this instance), processor speed(standard for this model is 1.33GHz), hard drive size(in this case 120GB is standard), and choice of accompanying software and operating system.

    11.1-inch display is an excellent "middle-ground" size for business and entertainment applications alike - widescreen aspect ratio is especially suited to movie and video viewing
