Sony Vaio FW Series
21 October 2008
I was doing some window shopping for notebook PC’s and this one really caught my attention – the new Sony Vaio FW Series. From a distance, I thought it was one of those portable HDTV’s they are selling but as I approached I found myself standing at the computer section and in front of me is an extra widescreen Sony Vaio notebook playing a really sleek copy of a James Bond movie. Amazing!
Anyway, I got a brochure from one of the salesman and this is what I got:
- The Sony Vaio FW Series is the very first notebook with extra-wide display area of 16.4″ and features a 16:9 aspect ratio commonly found on HD televisions.
- This aspect ratio removes those annoying black margins from the top and bottom parts of DVD movies. This also gives you more space for viewing two documents at the same time.
- Obviously, Sony Vaio is gearing in integrating full cinematic experience on the FW series because they have already incorporated Blu-ray Disc technology on this one – one of the very first notebooks with Blu-ray disc support.
- The crystal clear viewing area is Vaio’s new inclusion to its technologies: the XBRITE-FullHD LCD Technology. It is so far the clearest and most detailed notebook LCD in the market with 1080p HD quality which, again, commonly found in HDTV television.
I didn’t asked the salesman how much these things costs. Although I do have a plan to buy a new notebook on my next salary but I am sure I can’t afford gadgets as fancy as this.
Maybe on some other lifetime.
