worth 4k, perhaps not. at 3.4lbs and very fast, perhaps to some.

my point is this...it is NOT a sub-par laptop for its size and profile...in fact it is quite powerfull given those specifications. it is a fairly standard run of the mill VGN-Z590 computer. slightly less powerfull versions come in production Z540 (3gm ram, 1366x768 resolution, 320 GB HDD, 2.4 ghz) or Z570 (same but 2.53 ghz) versions. Customizable as well. I have the Z540, have for about a month, and could not be happier with it.]]>Oct 2nd 2008 12:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/02/sonys-quantum-of-solace-vaio-laptop-revealed-as-expensive-de/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/02/sonys-quantum-of-solace-vaio-laptop-revealed-as-expensive-de/Oct 3rd 2008 2:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/02/sonys-quantum-of-solace-vaio-laptop-revealed-as-expensive-de/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/02/sonys-quantum-of-solace-vaio-laptop-revealed-as-expensive-de/Costy laptop.]]>Oct 2nd 2008 11:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/02/sonys-quantum-of-solace-vaio-laptop-revealed-as-expensive-de/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/02/sonys-quantum-of-solace-vaio-laptop-revealed-as-expensive-de/Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=djxLKQQEf34]]>Oct 3rd 2008 1:25AM
