Sony Offers Up a Rival for the iMac

To be fair to Apple, as much as some people may prefer Windows over OSX, few would argue that the appearance of the iMac range is among the sleekest and most attractive of computer designs available. However, Sony has now launched its new VAIO LT all-in-one PC which could well become a thorn in Apple's side. The VAIO LT features a 22" 'floating glass' display, a 1.3 MP integrated webcam, an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 2GB of RAM and an 802.11n wireless adaptor. Not only will it act as a computer, but it can also be used as a high definition TV, and the VAIO LT HD model also boasts a Blu-ray drive and Windows Vista Ultimate (the standard model uses Home Premium). The new VAIO LT should become available during October, but with the basic model costing $1,900 and the premium model costing $2,900, Sony's prices are significantly above those of the iMac, which starts at just $1,199 for the 20" model.

I paid £200 for mine and all 3 broke in under a year. Luckily they were all under warranty so I only paid for the first one.

First one lasted 3 months and burnt out.

I was just too pro :cool:

Lol.... Ya my Ps2 is about dead now, I have had it for about 3 years, takes forever to read the disc, I think the lens is pretty dirty or out of alignment... Ohh well I'll buy a new one or get a ps3 if it lasts long enough.

Hopefully it lasts, I want GranTurismo 5 :)

Gran Turismo can suck my dick I hate those games.

Burnout 3, FlatOut2, NFS Series; those are my kind of games.
