Beautifully contoured Vaio notebook, reminiscent of a designer chair. For a notebook that users will be proud to be seen with on the go, the developers equipped this model with a thin combo drive that helps showcase how slim it is. The continuous curving lines on the sides serve a practical purpose in the layout. Components are arranged on the lines, providing a better feeling of integration between the screen, keyboard, battery, and other parts. The developers know that carrying one's notebook in public is essentially the same as showing it to others, and this awareness is reflected in the design.
