Technical Details for Sony Vaio S2XP

Sony Vaio S2XP ... unique display and super portability for the professional user. On top it offers more where it counts.

Sony offers dual format DVD±RW as standard on all models, bringing greatly increased versatility and potential to the Series as a whole. In the same spirit, the size of the hard disk has been enlarged.

Key enhancements in processing power, graphics and hard disk size reflect the changing needs of the business user. The obvious example is the use of faster processors across the range to ensure that the S2-Series retains the performance advantage necessary for a first rate business tool.

In addition to its high overall system performance, the ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 graphics card balances the S2 series perfectly, where both conventional and 3D graphics handling are boosted to levels previously only associated with desktop PCs. Everything from image-rich presentations to architectural CAD will run more smoothly as a result, but it doesn't stop there.

The S-Series was principally conceived as the definitive lightweight business notebook, which paradoxically means that it must be more than just a business machine. What makes the S2-Series the ideal traveling companion is their ability to act as personal entertainment systems when the need arises.

The special 13.3-inch diagonal wide-screen LCD (a size exclusive to Sony) is great for work because of the additional Desktop area it yields. It's also great for watching widescreen movies on DVD, the way they were meant to be seen. The S2-Series features Sony's own X-black screen enhancement, which visibly increases brightness and the range of contrast, as well as breathing life into colors. Business graphics and presentations look better - and films do too.
