Sony VAIO VGN-SZ370P

VAIO VGN-SZ370P
Angle Front Keyboard

review

The ultraportable category in the U.S. has been growing at a rate at which even Asian countries are beginning to raise their eyebrows, and why not? Chips and transistors are shrinking every year, while performance continues to climb. The Sony VAIO VGN-SZ370P ($2,080 street) is a classic example of miniaturization meeting power, as it loads a high-performance processor and discrete graphics into its 3.8-pound frame. You'll have a tough time deciding between it and the Lenovo ThinkPad X60 (Vista).

The Sony VAIO VGN-SZ370P is the second-best ultraportable, next to the LenovoThinkPad X60 (Vista), integrating an optical drive and discrete graphics into a 3.8-pound frame.

Pros

Under 4 pounds with optical drive and discrete graphics. Dual graphics. Sleek design. WWAN modem built-in. Excellent performance scores.

Cons

Mushy keyboard. The Cingular EDGE network it supports is too slow for the money you'd pay per month.
