Engadget just reported on the new VAIOs. OK, I gotta say that finally there’s a worthy adversary to Apple’s notebooks. Check out these new VAIOs.

Price starts at $900… are you kidding me? This sort of thing really makes me get pissed off at Apple. If Sony can fit all of this in such a small package, don’t preach me how hard it was to make an 8 hour battery for a 17″ MacBook Pro. No matter what Apple uses as an excuse for not making their laptops more full featured, they can eat it.
