Sony VAIO Z Series: Premium Power To Go

Built tough for your business travel needs, this ultra-portable Sony VAIO Z Series laptop (model VPC-Z133GX/B) weighs just over 3 pounds and measures 1.3 inches thin, yet it doesn't compromise on the powerful computing features you've come to expect from business-class VAIO notebooks. It offers a 13.1-inch high-resolution LED-backlit screen, the latest Intel Core i5 processor with dual-core processing power, solid state drive (SSD) technology for a rapid boot-up and quicker access to applications, and a dynamic hybrid graphics system that lets you easily switch from high-powered graphics performance to energy saving mode to extend battery life.

Designed to help endure the knocks, bumps and accidents common to frequent travel and day-in day-out use, this VAIO Z Series notebook is durable and built to last. Highlighted by a silver carbon fiber and brushed aluminum design, it also features a backlit keyboard that frames the keys with a soft glow and illuminates the lettering for convenient typing day or night. The solid state hard drive technology, which has no moving parts, provides a more durable storage solution, and the LED display utilizes a special hard coating on the LCD to help defend against scratching and general wear and tear.

With smart multicore technology that dynamically applies processing power when needed most, the Intel Core i5 Processor allows you to multitask faster, unleash digital creativity, and max your performance thanks to Intel Turbo Boost technology.

A built-in MOTION EYE webcam (with integrated microphone) includes face tracking capabilities and lets you join in on video conferences as well as make long-distance VoIP calls. It includes Wireless-N Wi-Fi networking, which will connect to draft 802.11n routers and offers compatibility with 802.11b/g networks as well. The VAIO Z also comes with active ambient noise cancelling technology that perfectly complements the supplied headphones.

It comes pre-installed with the Microsoft Windows 7 Professional operating system (64-bit version), supporting office applications and all the software programs routinely found in full-size notebooks. And you can run many Windows XP productivity programs in Windows XP Mode. Windows 7 is the easiest, fastest, and most engaging version of Windows yet. Better ways to find and manage files, like Jump Lists and improved taskbar previews, help you speed through everyday tasks. Windows 7 is designed for faster and more reliable performance, so your PC just works the way you want it to.

Enjoy active ambient noise cancelling technology with the included headphones.

You'll also experience new ways to deliver your best work with Office Starter 2010.

Smart, Convenient, Durable Design

The VAIO Z laptop is built to help endure the knocks, bumps and accidents common to frequent travel and day-in day-out computing. The multi-layered carbon-fiber casing helps protect against knocks and bumps, while the seamless aluminum keyboard panel and hinge adds structural rigidity and helps keep internal components protected. Additionally, the solid state drive technology--which has no moving parts--provides a more durable storage solution.

The spacing between the keys is precisely engineered to create a comfortable and intuitive typing experience with a user-friendly touch and feel. And to make it even easier for your fingers to find the right keys--whether typing day or night, in the dark or light--an LED backlight creates a pleasant glow framing the individual keys and illuminating the lettering.

The VAIO Z Series laptop also features active ambient noise cancelling technology that perfectly complements the headphones supplied with all Z laptops. Specifically, the PC employs a negative phase signal to help cancel out ambient noise detected through the headphones so that whether you're on a plane or in a local cafe, you'll enjoy crisper, richer audio.

Hybrid graphics system.

Dynamic Hybrid Graphics

Exclusive to VAIO Z Series laptops, Sony's Dynamic Hybrid Graphics system lets you easily set your graphics performance to deliver power when you need it and energy savings when your computing load is light. You can even set your performance level on the fly without needing to reboot. Here's how it works: A simple hardware switch enables you to choose between three settings:

1. Select Speed for maximum power when multi-tasking or running heavier applications
2. Select Stamina to conserve energy and extend battery life, ideal for light computing and mobile scenarios
3. Select Auto and the intelligence built into the hybrid graphics system will self-select which power mode--Speed or Stamina--is appropriate given your current computing usage and whether or not you're plugged into an outlet

The ultra-portable Z Series laptop delivers full power and all the amenities at just over 3 pounds (see larger image).
