> Sony’s new Vaio type X
Bookmark topic
Our head says no, but heart says yes, yes to Sony’s latest ultramodern media PC, the VGX-X90P which comes with 7, count ‘em, 7 TV tuners, up to 1.6 terebytes of storage (half for the PC and half for storing video), a 3.6GHz processor, 1GB of RAM, a 128MB video card, and a DVD+-R/RW drive. Here’s the scary part: this bad boy retails for nearly five grand. And to go along with your new media PC you can’t afford (and also can’t buy except in Japan), Sony also announced a couple of companion pieces in the type X series, a matching digital HDTV tuner (the VGX-X90PS) and a 23-inch HDTV, the VGP-D23HD1.

Well thats $5000 us dollars so that makes it roughly £2500 which isn't a bad deal at all!..I've paid more or less the same for my laptop 2 years ago...Its an Amazing package for a relatively reasonable price.
