Sony VAIO TT ultraportable unboxed: Expensively exquisite
By Chris Davies on Thursday, Oct 9th 2008 No CommentsThe market for a $4,449.99 ultraportable can’t be too large, but that didn’t stop Sony from giving in to their darkest miniaturization impulses with the VAIO TT.

Sony VAIO VGC-RT150Y 25.5-inch 1080p PC reviewed: Expensive but stunning
By Chris Davies on Wednesday, Oct 8th 2008 No CommentsThe Sony VAIO VGC-RT150Y was described to us back in September as an “all-in-one high-definition studio”, and a look at the spec sheet indicated the company was certainly on the right track. Intel’s Core 2 Quad Q9400 processor running at up to 2.5GHz (6MB L2 cache), 8GB of RAM and 1TB of storage in dual-SATA user-accessible RAID array, coupled with a full-HD 1920 x 1200 25.5-inch LCD, makes for a monstrous system by anyone’s standards. PC Magazine have reinforced their desk and tried to find where the RT-series’ steam runs out.

By Chris Davies on Friday, Oct 3rd 2008 No CommentsWith SlashGear refusing to fly me on an impromptu holiday to Japan for the CEATEC 2008 expo, I’m having to admire things like this dissected Sony VAIO TT from a distance.

Sony VAIO TT ultraportable specs leak
By Chris Davies on Monday, Sep 22nd 2008 No CommentsSony are preparing to drop a new VAIO ultraportable, the TT-series, which will replace the VAIO TZ. Make no mistake, this is no netbook; according to SonyStyle’s VAIO advisor, the four model TT-range will top out with a 1.4GHz Intel SU9400 Core 2 Duo, 4GB of RAM and dual 128GB SSDs in RAID setup. The top-spec VGN-TT190UBX also has a Blu-ray burner and HDMI output, and weighs just 2.87-pounds; every model has an 11.1 inch LED screen with XBRITE-DuraView running at 1366 × 768.
Sony feels forced to release Netbook; budget notebook coming
By Chris Davies on Tuesday, Sep 16th 2008 No Comments
It seems to be a somewhat common refrain for notebook manufacturers to first claim the netbook segment is unfeasible and then promptly announce a budget ultraportable of their own. Fujitsu did it, denying any interest before pushing out the AMILO Mini, and now it looks like Sony will be next. After the My Graphic Splash event yesterday, Sony’s Senior vice president of Information Technology Products Mike Abary let slip that people should “stay tuned” for Sony’s netbook offering.
