[Eidorian]

Go back to 2005.

Sony VAIO V517G

 

[plinden]

It's much, much nicer than their first attempt: http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2006/02/08/sony_unwraps_va1/

Or Gateway's http://www.gateway.com/programs/profile6/

i dnt think ive seen an uglier computer lol
my imac is better and looks nicer, good luck with this superbly rubbish apple ripoff sony

I'm glad that Apple doesn't sell out and put "Intel Inside" stickers on the front of their computers. Sure they could make some money if they did, but I don't see how that's different from prostitution. Sell your body for a cheap buck, come on Sony. That computer looks ugly with those stickers.

 

[blueicedj]

It hasn't ever got good reviews...just doesn't run that great.

 

[rainydays]

Guess you haven't seen this one then

 

[Alloye]

This also features Vista Business, which is a very, very stable operating system.

Could that guy be any more of a shill?

 

[xUKHCx]

Good name, glad apple like to keep it simple.

 

[Dimwhit]

I do like the PCMCIA/Express Card slots. I wish the iMac had those. Otherwise...meh. It's not too bad.

 

[aquanutz]

haha. This reminds me of that emachine that was on sale for an entire week before apple sued them.

 

[Father Jack]

I wonder who designed that, it's gross ......

 

[Gosh]

Looks nice! Quite thick though.

You would want to stand it on something to get the right height for a desktop monitor?

Like the idea of some fairly discreet multi-media card slots.

That keyboard cover is gonna break for sure!

6/10 (10 being the new iMac).

Actually, I think the design ain't too bad for windoz PC. However, when you compare specs and price, Apple wins thumbs down. It has a much slower processor, smaller screen, slower system bus, slower ethernet, slower wi-fi card, Intel integrated, shared memory crappy video. It also costs more and you have to suffer with Windows Vista, YUK!

 

[nickpro]

pretty nice design, but that host was a NERD. i felt like reaching through the TV and slapping him

 

[GTiPhone]

man oh man....

Apple really does own

 

[MaskedPhantom]

Guess you haven't seen this one then

WTF? That looks like it's from the 80's!

 

[Eric Lewis]

ahha..

anyone remeber the laptops that had built in printers in the bottom? my dad had one..it was the best! ahahah jokes

Fanboy alert.

Intel doesn't pay anyone to use their Intel Inside stickers. They're supplied to vendors because Intel wants to increase their mindshare, and vendors use them because Intel already has great mindshare and it increases the "value" to ignorant customers.

People that are looking to buy an Apple already know they use Intel processors -- Steve said it himself.

my mac says intel inside

i got a sharpie and wrote it on!

 

[MaskedPhantom]

i got a sharpie and wrote it on!

OH EM GEE. How could you write on your precious Mac?

 

[paddy]

God that presenter is a moron. And spec wise, its not that far off a MB really with a few more ports thrown in...

Actually, they do pay to have those stickers put on.

I just wish I could get a sequel video with him saying the word "sleek" another 800 times.
