Among the VAIO Z series' best in class capabilities is a revolutionary 13.1'' LCD display.

Scratch-proofed and anti-glare, it delivers true-to-life color fidelity and extra wide 1600 x 900 resolution for deeper contrast and truly natural realization. With its carbon fiber casing the VAIO Z series notebook weighs less than 1.5kg, so it could hardly be easier to carry. Carbon fiber is lighter than traditional computer construction materials. Yet as you'd expect of a material more commonly used in aviation and formula one, it is also stronger.

Product Review for product Sony VAIO Z Series VGN-Z21WN/B - Core 2 Duo P9500 2.53 GHz - 13.1" TFT

This is the best laptop I have ever had and this is my second one. Very light, powerful and the addition on the built in 3G sim slot means no more USB dongle poking out of the side of the machine.

Nick Smith gave this item a score of 5 out of 5 stars
