Sony Vaio X

Sony’s Vaio X may have been claimed as overpriced and underpowered, but it’s also an engineering marvel according to an unnamed engineer at Techon who meticulously took the netbook apart to analyze its construction.

Details like hand soldered connections, custom designed wafer thin wifi and wimax antennas and super slim LCD glass (.21mm vs. .37mm) impressed the take apart engineer, and greatly added to Sony’ manufacturing cost for the Sony Vaio X.

“I felt that Sony put its whole heart into developing this.  I would like to have a drink with the designers of the VAIO X. I think I will find a kindred spirit in those people” unnamed engineer, TechOn

Sony’s Vaio X currently sells for £1,749 at Amazon.co.uk.
