Get it "to go"
The whole idea behind the invention of the laptop is that you want a computer you can use when you're not near an outlet. So don't settle for notebooks that don't even let you finish a movie before the battery's drained. On the other hand, your computer does need to, you know, compute, so a machine with great battery life and poor performance won't work either. No, what you want is Sony's VPCS132FX/S. This VAIO laptop offers a 13.3" HD LED LCD screen, 2.53GHz Intel Core i3 dual-core processor, 4GB RAM, and 320GB hard drive. Fortunately for you, though, that performance doesn't come at the cost of portability. This sleek notebook is less than an inch-and-a-half thick and weighs just 4.4 lbs. And using the included lithium ion battery, you can go up to 5.5 hours before you need to re-charge. Whether traveling across town or across the ocean, this Sony VAIO laptop makes a great companion.
On the road or off, it looks great
For most people, a 13.3" screen is the perfect size for a laptop. It's big enough to easily see what you're working on, but not so big it's a bother to carry with you. However, when you're stationary, wouldn't it be nice if your screen were a little more sizable? With Sony's VPCS132FX/S, it easily can be. When you're not on the road or in the air, an HDMI port lets you hook up to most modern TVs with a single cable, while a VGA port is perfect for projectors or monitors. But the best option doesn't require any cables at all. Using Intel's Wireless Display Technology, this VAIO allows you to purchase an adapter for your TV and use it as a monitor . . . wirelessly. This is one notebook that's great whether or not you're sitting still.
