Sony Vaio VPCS11V9E/B review
The release of Intel’s Core i3 and i5 processors is likely to provoke a significant scrabble among laptop manufacturers to release a swathe of top-end, fast laptops. We review the Sony Vaio VPCS11V9E/B to find out what it's made of.
If there's room in your IT budget for a fleet of top-end laptops you're lucky indeed, but the S11 nonetheless offers excellent value for money. It costs a little over a grand, and while there's no doubt that the quad-core processor, 4GB of RAM and massive hard disk will be overkill for most office workers, anyone who has to deal with image editing for work, or delivers presentations that include HD video, will appreciate the extra speed. Indeed, anyone who's found themselves shutting down a few applications because their laptop has ground to a halt will appreciate the S11's performance. Then consider the excellent build quality, good screen and portability - both in terms of battery life and weight - and this Sony is the best choice for anyone looking for a new business notebook.
