Plenty of companies give their own computers in the collection of styles, although Sony was at this for for a longer time than most. A person can trace that all the way back towards the C Series in February 2007, that has been changed by the CR Series within August that time and the CS Collection recently.
However,
whilst the outgoing CR was rather good, the CS has been quite a significant action backward, thus we were not amazed to see it quickly replaced by the Sony Vaio VPCF11S1E/B laptop together with the introduction of Windows 7.
You will find 5 colours attainable: white, red, pink, blue and black. Any pink type regardless of individual choice, is most likely the least desirable option of these all. Even those that love pink will certainly discover that the brighter, more energetic tone viewed around the lid and hand rest fails to sit properly using the somewhat sickly, pale shade utilized around the rest of the laptop. No real problems might be made on the other selections, nevertheless, and we specially like the red/black and white versions.
As for the general layout, the Sony Vaio VPCF11S1E/B isn't a design icon, but it is another solid, very well set together machine coming from Sony. While competitors are likely to over complicate their own designs in order to be noticeable, Sony manages to generate a sense of style in a far much more restrained method. Every thing is within the suitable area and has a purpose, leaving your preference of coloration to make the affirmation - if that's what you want.
As regarding our model, it's powered by means of an Intel Core 2 Duo P7450 running at 2.13GHz which is supported by a plentiful 4GB DDR3 Memory. Sony has also possessed the experience to install a 64-bit variation of Windows 7, therefore so much system memory is becoming put to beneficial use. A 512MB nVidia GT 230M graphics cards serves up the visual treats, whereas for hard drive you receive a 320GB hard disk. Gigabit Ethernet, Wireless-N Wi-Fi and also Bluetooth are all found as well, completing a thorough spec.
Connection choices seriously isn't too bad, either. Whilst the Sony Vaio laptop VPCF11S1E/B doesn't have eSATA or USB 'sleep and charge' abilities, it does have mini-FireWire - an extremely uncommon port on laptop computers of late. Everything else is rather regular, which includes: 3 USB ports (2x left, 1x right); High-definition multimedia interface and VGA for video; a 34mm ExpressCard port, audio jacks (1x earphone, 1x mic); an Ethernet port around the backside and separate memory card slots intended for Sony's little-known types plus the additional typically made use of SD card format.
In common with all of Sony computers of late, the VPCF11S1E/B laptop shows an isolation-style keyboard set - an invention Sony alone started out. Definitely that could be the similar keyboard set as seen in the VAIO NW Series earlier in the same year, which is very good news given that it have an excellent keyboard. Sony has seriously nailed the important measures on these types of keyboards, eliminating the shallow experience of older attempts while retaining the snappy response. Allied to a faultless layout, the VPCF11S1E/B laptop features between the finest keyboards of any consumer notebook.
Same plaudits could be offered to the accompanying touchpad. For starters it's huge sufficient which the right now stylish multi-touch assist is truly useful, unlike the latest Toshiba Satellite U500. Its area is completely smooth, while the 2 buttons are independently hinged thereby provide great tactile response. If you're ever in doubt regarding precisely what you obtain if you spend just a little more over a brand like Sony, this sort of greater detail should really persuade.
And what much better way to appreciate such movie clips compared to using your own instant-on web browser? It really is not Google Chrome OS, however pressing the 'Web' button on top of the laptop keyboard takes you from cold to a internet page in around 20 secs. This is a pretty well put together attribute that is very well implemented.
