By Will Head (cnet.co.uk)

Sony has released the solid and decently priced Vaio VGN-N38Z/W. With long battery life and good performance, its colours are fantastic. The model sits in middle ground between a portable and desktop replacement, while some of the design aspects ...

By IzzyS (ciao.co.uk)

...that you could get a Sony Vaio for under 400, I was quite tempted. Having read through the laptops specification and knowing that Vaios in general are sturdy, well built laptops of a decent quality and having always liked Sony branded items (I know, it...

Decent spec., nice ergonomic design and feel to it, nice size, good value for money
