The
Sony Vaio reminded us of the
Sony Bravia LCD TV models, with the unit sporting a clear glass frame and brushed aluminium bezel. This PC sports a 19-inch wide WXGA monitor with a native resolution of 1440 x 900. There are no buttons found up front as the power button and display off button is located on the top right portion of the screen.
Sony has placed all of the ‘computer' aspects of the Vaio behind the screen. One can find the Vaio's PC Card slot, ExpressCard slot, Memory Stick Pro card reader, SD card reader, Headphone jack, and Wi-Fi indicator on the left side of the unit. A FireWire (IEEE 1394) port, Microphone in, Audio in, Optical out, and three USB ports are located at the back of the unit, while a Hybrid TV tuner, A/V Input, S-Video in, AC port, Ethernet port, Modem port, and Wi-Fi toggle (On/Off) hidden behind the removable back casing. A slot-load DVD drive and two additional USB ports can be found at the right of the screen, making it easy for users to hook up any device unto the Vaio.
The Vaio LM can either be mounted to the wall or placed on top of the table. And in order to adjust the unit, users must move its neck until that perfect viewing angle is achieved.
