Sony VAIO VGN-NR17G Notebook Review - CNET Asia
CNET Asia have published a review of the affordable Sony VAIO VGN-NR17G Notebook. 'Sony VAIO VGN-NR17G (Core 2 Duo T7300 Processor 2.0GHz, 1GB RAM) 'Like the rest of the Sony VAIO laptop family, the VGN-NR17G has a large VAIO logo embossed on the back of the lid, clearly advertising your brand preference to anyone sitting nearby. The biggest difference between this and other VAIOs is the textured plastic that covers everything except the screen bezel and bottom surface. It's not the worst look in the world, but it feels cheap compared to the design-oriented mix of metal and plastic materials found on other VAIO laptops. At only 33mm thick, it's slightly slimmer than Sony's 15-inch home theater laptop, the VAIO VGN-FZ18G, but heavier, by nearly 220g.'
