What exactly does such a pricey laptop get you? The 14-inch Vaio Z is great for users who want to maximize performance and minimize weight. However, it doesn't offer enough in other aspects to justify the higher price against competitors.

Someone would have to have zero taste and lots of excess money to buy this thing. When VAIO charges twice the price of Apple and offers a creaky chassis, weak hinges, 16:9 screens and not even comparable speakers, you know they have no idea how to build and market laptops.
I can't imagine who will buy this, maybe Sony will buy it for their executives (home office, corporate gift etc.)
Japanese people are not stupid. Who is this Franken-laptop for?
The Vaio Z is definitely one of the laptops ever made
