Sony VAIO kicking PowerBook butt and taking names
The new Sony VAIO TR I'm lusting after just got reviewed by the Straits Times and it looks like a winner. "As its closest competitor is Apple's 12-inch PowerBook, the TR1 has been touted as the PowerBook killer. Does it deserve this accolade? In more ways than one. The Centrino LAN certainly has better coverage than Apple's Airport card ... And the Sony screen is by far the best I have seen on a laptop. It does not look like an ordinary LCD and seems more like a plasma screen ... Unlike the Apple 12-inch PowerBook, the drive tray is a non-slot loading type, offering the advantage of easy loading of the disc and, more importantly, removing it should it get stuck!" Oh yeah, I want one.
