Overview


With a simple yet stylish design, this Sony Vaio VGN-FW21L looks very similar to a Macbook. Even the keyboard design is the same. The power beneath, however, is much extraodinary than a normal Macbook.

Display


Equiped with a 16.4" screen, which has a high resolution of 1600x900 WXGA and a true 16:9 aspect ratio, is capable of producing impressively performance. This large screen is able to satisfy every single user, who is in the need of watching movies, playing games or view photos in high detail. The pictures produced are very vivid, sharp and realistic. There seem to be no colour in this world that cannot be produced on this screen. The X-black screen technology increases contrast and creates more depth to the image. With this screen, you can have the feeling of watching movies in the real cinema.

Performance


The Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 / 2.4 GHz and a huge amount of 4GB RAM ensure a fantastic multitask ability. You can listen to music, surf web, download movies, play games all at the same time smoothly.

The powerful ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 allows you to play almost every game on the market at medium or high quality. I've put up a test for this laptop on thre games. First, with PES 2009, the game automatically increase all graphic settings to highest and I can play it without feeling a single shake. The second game is Crysis War head. I played the game in 1600 x 900 deffinition and details at Medium. The average frame rate for this game is 30! The last game is Call of duty 4, 1600 x 900, high quality, and I can play smoothly!

Moreover, with a huge storage capacity of 400GB, you will have no worry about deleting old movies, pictures or games.

With powerful processor, huge memory and terrific graphic support, this laptop is really a good game machine.

Connectivity


The Vaio FW21L provides every possibility of connecting to other devices with USB, Firewire port, Wireless device and bluetooth. You can connect this laptop to a camera to copy photos, exchanging files with a handphone through bluetooth or just simply connect to the Internet. The wireless system is very strong and stable.

Conclusion


Together with a 1.3 integrated camera and an optical Blueray drive, this laptop is equiped with the latest technology makes it become one of the best mobile entertainment machine. You can play enjoy games, movies, music, and more at tip top quality everywhere with this laptop. Worry about the battery? It can live up to 3.2 hours of games and movies! The only thing to worry about is your pocket.

Manufacturer's product description

The smooth, curved lines of the VAIO FW series notebook are as functional as they are attractive. From the iconic cylindrical hinge to the sloping bezel where the keyboard meets the display, every last inch of this notebook is designed to maximize viewing area while minimizing size. The result is an innovative PC with a 16.4" LCD that combines all the benefits of a 17" widescreen display with the dimensions or "footprint" of a smaller 15.4" model. A great productivity tool, the VAIO FW series notebook's extended widescreen display lets you view two documents or web sites side-by-side without tabbing back and forth. This convenient, time-saving feature typically found in larger notebooks, which delivers crystal-clear picture quality and 100% color saturation. Next-generation Intel Centrino 2 processor technology delivers unprecedented processing power, expanded wireless connectivity, enhanced multimedia support and greater efficiency. Add to this load of RAM, ample storage and an array of inputs/outputs, and you get desktop power and convenience packed into a highly mobile notebook. The FW series notebook is ideal for those in the creative fields. The spacious 16.4" widescreen display can easily accommodate multi-display design programs.
