80%Sony VAIO VGN-SZ370P
Source: PC Mag
Bottom line: 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.

NVIDIA GeForce Go 7400: NVIDIA GeForce Go 7400 is a faster clocked Geforce Go 7300, which is a slightly enhanced GeForce Go 6200. The performance is a bit below average. Some current not demanding games can be played fluently with low details. For other games massive restrictions with the game settings must be tolerated. The performance is sufficient for office applications and surfing.

Intel Core 2 Duo: The Core 2 Duo is a successor of Core Duo and Core Solo with a longer pipeline and up to 20% speed increase without to spend more current. 64-Bit EM64T command upgrade and 2 or 4 MB L2 cache characterize this processor with its 291 millions transistors, which are finished in 65 nm.

T7200: The "T" variants of the Core 2 Duo are the standard versions in notebooks. They need less current than the "E", but more current than the "L" (low voltage) and "U" (ultra low voltage) variants.
T7200 is a T-variant with medium speed.

13.3": This is a frequent and the biggest display format for sub-notebooks.
The advantage is, that the subnotebook can be small dimensioned and can be carried easily. Further the tiny display has the advantage, that it needs few current, which improves the battery runtime and in consequence the mobility. The disadvantage is that the reading of texts is very exhausting vor the eyes. High resolutions can hardly be used.

1.6 kg: This sub-notebook weights less than the average of all notebooks and represent a medium class of weight among the sub-notebooks. 11 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.

Sony: Sony is a notebook manufacturer of medium size according international market shares. There exist a lot of reviews about Sony notebooks. The total ratings and price/value ratings are good above average.
