I have a Sony Vaio Z21.
So alright alright, it's not, cheap. It's not in the same ball park as the MBA on the performance side (it annihilates it)
But!
- it's slightly lighter than the MBA
- its just as thin and compact
- it has a gorgeous screen that also doesnt reflects everything instead of showing you content
- it runs linux just fine
- you can plug a lightpeak graphic card if you like
- the SSD's are extremely, extremely fast (750mbyte/s sequential writes, and over the gigbyte/s sequential reads. And no, its not mbit/s)
- standard voltage i7
- bunch of options if you like that sort of stuff (fingerprint reader, 3G card, fullhd screen, etc)
- battery sheet if you like 10-12H battery life for a slightly heavier lappy (long courier flights anyone?)
-actual HDMI out, VGA out, ethernet port, no need to carry adapters.
-it still looks pretty cool
- sorenbs 15y agowhat kind of battery life (with the build in battery) and fan noise do you experience under normal working conditions?
- catch23 15y agothat thing is 3x the cost of a macbook air... and I thought apple products were expensive.
- phamilton 15y agoBS on the SSD speeds. 6 gbps SATA with 8/10 encoding (standard SATA) means the bus is saturated at 600MB/s.
- plantain 15y agoDepending on his configuration they come in 2way and 4way RAID-0, so those numbers are potentially feasible.
