With a variety of coloring known as "Wenge brown -- a creamy, coffee-color made to resemble wood furniture," and claims that "these new notebooks are designed to accent your interior design, as well as your life," you know it's going to be good.
Sony is aiming their new
Vaio N Series line of mid-tier laptops at the fashionista set, and while they aren't incredibly forthcoming on specs, we're sure these laptops will look good doing whatever they've got the juice to do. Starting at $1,000, the N Series models feature 15.4-inch displays, Core Duo processors (in the top-end at least) and a dual-layer DVD burner, along with the usual Sony frills like a Memory Stick reader, i.LINK port and ExpressCard slot. There's also 802.11a/b/g WiFi, and while we're not so sure about graphics options, Sony does claim that select models are Vista Premium ready, so we've got that going for us. The N Series ships next month, and Sony should be taking pre-orders starting today.

Pretty sweet, but definitely not as nice as the one in the commercial contest. Speaking of which... when can we see all of the entrants & hear about a winner? It ended three days ago now...
From the back it looks like an interesting hybrid of the first Apple G4 Powerbook (Titanium) and the current Apple aluminum shelled models except without the space saver screen hinge (thus allowing a few ports on the back).
i agree with the previous comment - it looks like sony is picking up on apple's design : P - at first glance it looks like a macbook
Will they run OS X?
Will it come rootkit-enabled?
