Sony bring innovation and style to the world of laptops. Renowned for taking an innovative approach to product development, they have produced stylish, compact laptops aimed at the home and business user who wants to combine the latest functionality with fashionable good looks.

As expected, you have the power, battery charge, HDD access, memory stick access, wireless card and optical disk access light on the front side of the laptop, in parallel with the touchpad. Right next to these lights you will find the wireless on/off switch. The optical drive is located in front of the laptop and this makes access more difficult then when it was places on the left or right side of the laptop. You get your usual USB ports, a FireWire port, D-SUB port, a type II PC card slot and the headphone and microphone ports. In case you were wondering where the Ethernet port is, try looking under that flap over there and you will find it, together with a modem socket. Since most of the time it’s what’s inside that counts, we must tell you, the components have surprised us as we did not expect good specs in a slim laptop. You get a 1.6 GHz Pentium M processor, 512MB of RAM, an nVidia GeForce 6200 graphics card plus 60GB of available disk space. It’s pretty good for a laptop with its price (and it’s not just any laptop, it’s a Sony VAIO) even though you won’t be playing the top of the games, it’s still going to help you get around and get things done. The battery will stay alive for about 3 hours under normal Windows applications but you can also enjoy a good movie, with more than 2 hours of battery life.

PlayStation 3
Main article: PlayStation 3
The newest home console in the PlayStation family, as well as Sony’s entry in the seventh-generation of consoles, the PlayStation 3 (PS3) was launched in November 2006. It utilizes a unique processing architecture, the Cell microprocessor, a proprietary technology developed by Sony in conjunction with Toshiba and IBM. The graphics processing unit, the RSX ‘Reality Synthesizer’, was co-developed by Nvidia and Sony. Several variations of the PS3 have been released, each with slight hardware and software differences, each denoted by the varying size of the included hard disk drive (20, 40, 60, 80, and 160GB). A 120GB Slim model has been released and is now the current default system. The 20, 40, 60 and 80GB versions, however, have since been discontinued. Sony is expecting to excel with the PS3 sales by stringing out a whole new range of firmware updates.
PlayStation 2 console
PlayStation 2
Main article: PlayStation 2
Currently the highest selling home console of all time, SCE’s second home console, the PlayStation 2 (PS2 or PSX2) was released in Japan on March 4, 2000, and later in North America and Europe in October and November 2000, respectively. The PS2 is powered by a proprietary central processing unit, the Emotion Engine, and was the first video game console to have DVD playback functionality included out of the box. Initially, the system was criticized for its complex development environment, due mainly to the proprietary hardware included, however despite these complaints the PlayStation 2 received widespread support from third party developer’s throughout its lifespan on the market. Today it has sold up to 150 million units world wide.
PlayStation console
PlayStation
Main article: PlayStation
Sony’s first wide home console release, the PlayStation (codenamed PSX during development, currently PSOne), was initially designed to be a CD-ROM drive add-on for Nintendo’s Super Nintendo Entertainment System (a.k.a. Super Famicom in Japan) video game console, in response to Sega’s Sega CD. When the prospect of releasing the system as an add-on dissolved, Sony redesigned the machine into a stand alone unit. The PlayStation was released in Japan on December 3, 1994 and later in North America on September 9, 1995.
Handheld consoles
PlayStation Portable
PlayStation Portable
Main article: PlayStation Portable
The PlayStation Portable (PSP) is SCE’s first foray into the small handheld console market, which was and to this date still is dominated by Nintendo. Its development was first announced during SCE’s E3 conference in 2003, and it was officially unveiled during their E3 conference on May 11, 2004. The system was released in Japan on December 12, 2004, in North America on March 24, 2005 and in Europe and Australia on September 1, 2005. The console has since seen two major redesigns, with new features including a smaller size, more internal memory, a better quality LCD screen and a lighter weight. A new design, the PSP Go, was released on October 1, 2009 for North America and Europe and on November 1, 2009 for Japan. It has a 3.8″ LCD which slides up to reveal the main controls. The PSP Go is 45% lighter and 56% smaller than the original PSP and does not support UMD. The device does support Bluetooth and will be completely digital meaning all media must be downloaded or transferred to the device which has 16 GB of internal flash memory.
Other hardware
PSX
Main article: PSX (DVR)
In December 2003, the Sony Consumer Electronics division (note: Not Sony Computer Entertainment) released the PSX, a device that combined the video game capabilities of a PlayStation 2 with an included DVD writer and hard drive, allowing video recording and DVD burning functionality. The PSX was the first product to utilize SCE’s XrossMediaBar user interface, and was to be a media convergence device utilizing the PlayStation brand to gain a foothold on the market, however due to its high price it failed to gain any significant market share. It was never released outside of Japan.
The PocketStation
PocketStation
Main article: PocketStation
The PocketStation was a miniature game console created by SCE as a peripheral for the original PlayStation. Released exclusively in Japan on December 23, 1998, it features an LCD display, a speaker, a real-time clock, and infrared communication capability. It can also be used as a standard PlayStation memory card.
Software development studios
On September 14, 2005, SCE formed Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios (SCE WWS), a single internal entity overseeing all wholly owned development studios within SCE. It is responsible for the creative and strategic direction of development and production of all computer entertainment software by all SCE-owned studios, all of which is produced exclusively for the PlayStation family of consoles.
Shuhei Yoshida was named as President of SCE WWS on May 16, 2008, replacing Kazuo Hirai, who was serving interim after inaugural SCE WWS President Phil Harrison left the company in early 2008.

Since its inception in 1993, SCE has also built up a large stable of third party developers that it often collaborates with in a variety of manners, from publishing to funding to co-development. These companies are however not owned or under contract by SCE, and some, unlike the studios within SCE WWS, also release and develop products in cooperation with competing video game developers and publishers, and for competing handheld and/or home consoles as well.

PlayStation Home
Main article: PlayStation Home
PlayStation Home, is a community-based free service developed by Sony Computer Entertainment’s London and Cambridge studios for the PlayStation 3 on the PlayStation Network. It is available directly from the PlayStation 3 XrossMediaBar. Home has been in development since early 2005 and started an open public beta test in December 2008. Home allows users to create an avatar on their PlayStation 3 console and explore an online world. This avatar gets its own virtual apartment space or “HomeSpace”, which can be adorned with items that users can obtain in several different ways. Xi, a once notable feature of Home, is the world’s first console based Alternate Reality Game that took place in secret areas in Home and was created by nDreams.
Room for PlayStation Portable
Main article: Room for PlayStation Portable
Announced at TGS 2009, a similar service to the PlayStation Home, is being developed for the PSP. Named “Room” (officially spelled as R with capital letters and the infinity symbol in place of the “oo”), it is currently being beta tested in Japan. It will be added to the PSP in an upcoming update in Q4 2009 or Q1 2010 and can be launched directly from the PlayStation Network section of the XMB. Just like in Home, PSP owners will be able to invite other PSP owners into their rooms to “enjoy real time communication.” A closed beta test will begin in Q4 2009 in Japan.
Life with PlayStation
Main article: Life with PlayStation
Life with PlayStation is a Folding@home application available for the PS3 which connects to Stanford University Folding@home distributed computer network and allows the user to donate their console’s spare processing cycles to the project. This research may eventually contribute to the creation of vital cures. Folding@home is supported by Stanford University and volunteers who are making a contribution to society by donating computing power to this project. The Folding@home client was developed by Sony Computer Entertainment in collaboration with Stanford University.
Life with PlayStation also consists of a 3D virtual view of the Earth, containing current weather and news information of various cities and countries from around the world.
Linux operating systems
Linux for PlayStation 2
Main article: Linux for PlayStation 2
In 2002, Sony released the first useful and fully functioning operating system for a video game console, after the Net Yaroze experiment for the original PlayStation. The kit, which included an internal hard disk drive and the necessary software tools, turned the PlayStation 2 into a full fledged computer system running Linux.
Linux for PlayStation 3
Main article: Linux for PlayStation 3
The PlayStation 3 (excluding Playstation 3 Slim) also supports running the Linux OS, though this time without the need for buying additional hardware purchase. Yellow Dog Linux provides an official distribution that can be downloaded, and other distributions such as Fedora, Gentoo and Ubuntu have been successfully installed and operated on the console.
Marketing
SCE advertising slogans used for each PlayStation console iteration:
PlayStation
“Enos Lives” (The first letter ‘E’ was printed in red to denote the word, ready. Enos stood for Ready, Ninth of September)
“U R Not E” (The letter ‘E’ was printed in red to denote the word, ready, as in You Are Not Ready)
“Do Not Underestimate The Power Of The PlayStation.”
PSOne
“Wherever, Whenever, Forever.”
PlayStation 2
“The Beginning.”
“Live In Your World, Play In Ours.” (The PlayStation face button icons were used to denote certain letters: Live In Yur Wrld, Ply In urs)
“Welcome to the Third Place.”
“Fun, Anyone?”
PlayStation Portable
“Dude, Get Your Own…” (PSP-2000 Series)
“Everywhere Just Got Better” (PSP-3000 Series and PSPgo)
“It’s GO Time” (PSPgo)
“The Whole World In Your Hands” (UK & Europe Territories)
PlayStation 3
“Welcome Chang3″ (the number three is used to denote an ‘e’)
“This is Living.”
“Play B3yond” (the number three is used to denote an ‘e’)
“It Only Does… EVERYTHING”. (US Commercials)
“The Game Is Just The Start. Start PS3.” (UK and EU countries)
Controversial advertising campaigns
SCE has gained a rather infamous reputation of occasionally utilizing extremely unique and often controversial advertising campaigns throughout various regions in the world.
PSP
Sony admitted in late 2005 to hiring good graffiti artists to spray paint advertisements for the PSP in seven major U.S. cities including New York City, Philadelphia, and San Francisco. The mayor of Philadelphia has filed a cease and desist order and may file a criminal complaint. According to Sony, it is paying businesses and building owners for the right to spraypaint their walls.
In 2006, Sony ran a poster campaign in England. One of the poster designs with the slogan “Take a running jump here” was removed from a Manchester Piccadilly station tram platform due to concerns that it might encourage suicide.
In July 2006, Sony released an advertising campaign in the Netherlands featuring a Caucasian model dressed entirely in white and a black model dressed entirely in black. One ad in particular featured the white model clutching the face of the black model, with the words “White is coming” headlining the ad. The ad has been viewed as racist by critics. A Sony spokesperson responded that the ad does not have a racist message, saying that it was only trying to depict the contrast between the black PSP model and the new ceramic white PSP. Other pictures of the ad campaign include the black model overpowering the white model.
In November 2006, a marketing company employed by Sony’s American division created a website entitled “All I want for Xmas is a PSP”, designed to promote the PSP virally. The site contained a blog, which was purportedly written by “Charlie”, a teenager attempting to get his friend Jeremy’s parents to buy him a PSP, providing a “music video” of either Charlie or Jeremy “rapping” about the PSP. Visitors to the website quickly recognized that the website was registered to a marketing company, exposing the campaign on sites such as YouTube and digg, and Sony was forced to admit that the site was in fact a marketing campaign. In an interview with next-gen.biz, Sony admitted that the idea was “poorly executed”.
PlayStation 3
In September 2009, Sony revised one commercial in their “It only does… EVERYTHING” campaign after a complaint was made by the Nigerian government. Prof Dora Akunyili, Minister of Information and Communication, said that the advert was a “deliberate negative campaign against the country’s image and reputation”. The commercial showed one man trying to convince another that the rumours about the PlayStation 3 selling for the lower price of 9 were true. The man replies “You can’t believe everything you read on the Internet otherwise I’d be a Nigerian millionaire by now.” referencing the common 419 scams originating in Nigeria. Sony issued an apology and a new version of the advert with the offending line changed.

Article by Steven Man

It used to be the actual situation in which The new sony laptop computers ended up significantly superior to others – they’d greater quality, superior elements and many others. Of late, however, Sony happens to be clipping quite a few corners to try to increase it’s productivity, believing that once the actual Sony label is in some thing, their very own status can succeed as a result of and they’ll be able to promote underperforming laptop computers at high costs.

To a certain degree, this is true. You will still find plenty of buyers who remember Sony’s glory period and have now stayed with them from dedication and also genuine conviction that their Sony in fact is superior to its competitors. And even though it may be greater than the very most affordable notebook out there, a Sony laptop computer is generally no longer virtually any match up for the best, and most certainly not notebook of choice regarding running Ms windows when it was once.

Certainly, all this doesn’t so much apply if you buy just through the top of Sony’s selection, in which the notebooks are likely to be similar in results as they ever have been, yet more expensive. Sony’s approach has become to try and help to make usual netbooks as well as top-end high-class ones simultaneously, which will essentially leads to the Sony mobile computing devices people want becoming the ones that are priced for individuals who’ll pay out nearly anything – Apple company have the same strategy for their particular iBooks and also MacBooks.

Nevertheless, if you’re able to acquire a top-end Sony notebook, you’ll see an actual difference in quality. The equipment are very, very fantastic, the case is top quality, it’s smaller than average robust as well as every little thing fits with each other very well. It’s just an a sense of shame that they can’t produce all their netbooks like this. For that reason, be mindful: although Sony make decent computers, the Sony title is not anymore a general badge regarding high quality, so you should do a lot more exploration and browse reviews prior to buying something that today’s Sony creates.

Article by Tom Lasky

Within the past decade, the Apple Corporation has really come a long way. After trailing in sales compared to PC brands for a few decades, Apple turned itself around with it´s release of the iPod. The iPod really enabled Apple to rebrand itself as a hip company that offered exceptionally high-quality products, and that image grew even more as young artists touted all of the ways that Apples outperformed PCs. Apple continues to release newer and newer models of it´s iPods, macbooks, and iPhones. Most recently, however, Apple has released it´s highly praised iPad, which consumers all across the country are excited to get their hands on. In order to make room for their new purchases, however, many people will need to sell the apple laptop they already own first.                     If you decide to sell the apple laptop you own before you get a new one, there are many benefits to doing so. Most importantly, your decision will help keep another laptop out of the landfill. The environmental impact of upgrading to a new computer can often be incredibly damaging because people sometimes just throw their old equipment out. If you´ve ever walked down the street and seen old computer monitors sitting next to a trash can, then you may already be aware of just how harmful disposing of old computer equipment can be. Even if you think your old computer is damaged, you can still sell it to a trustworthy reseller, who can repair it and then sell it to someone else. By making the decision to sell an apple laptop, you are also helping save a lot of energy that would be used if you had chosen to recycle it. Recycling old computer equipment takes a lot of the Earth´s resources. Of course, recycling a computer is still better than throwing it away, but the best option is to keep it out of the landfill and out of the recycling process. Often, several components of your laptop can be reused even if the machine isn´t functional overall, and since so many resources have already gone into building that computer, it´s important to make sure those resources don´t go to waste and get as much use as they can.Once you have chosen to sell the apple laptop that you own, you can set out to get your hands on Apple´s new iPad. After making the sale, you´ll have more money in your pocket, so you won´t have to worry about not being able to afford an iPad. These new tablet computers cost less than Apple´s macbooks anyway, so you may even be able to afford one without having to pay any more than what you sold your old laptop for. At the same time, your old laptop will be sold at a very affordable price, which will make it much more accessible for many Americans to own an Apple computer. So when you decide to sell an apple laptop, it´s a win-win situation for everyone involved in the process.

There are many advantages to having your apple computer repair done at a facility that can replace just components on the apple logic board. There are numerous weaknesses in the apple logic boards out there. With a new apple logic board costing hundreds if not over 00′s of dollars then add on labor.

The repair bill at the apple stores can be astronomical. Apple needs to sell new units to stay profitable. A board level repair shop does not. Many board level facilities just repair the apple logic board itself. There are even mail in apple laptop repair centers that you just mail you apple computer off to and they remove and repair the logic board then reinstall it.

Always look for a mail in apple repair center that offers free return shipping with insurance! Also there can be a misdiagnosis by the apple stores. I have seen it many times. There have been cases brought up where an apple computer was said to need a logic board but really the hard drive was bad.

When you are looking for an authorized apple repair center to mail in your apple Imac, your macintosh, your powerbook, I book, i book g4, or g5 desk top, check and make sure they have the ability to diagnose the problem correctly and replace only what is needed. Getting a logic board repaired instead of a noisy hard drive can be an expensive mistake and lead to headaches down the road.

A properly done apple logic board level repair should run about 250 dollars. That is almost 2/3 off the normal replacement logic board price. This should include labor and return shipping as I stated earlier. If you have been disgruntled by the apple stores and unwary of buying a new computer, THEN DON’T.

In this economy repair is the best option. Why shell out thousands when about 0 dollars will do the trick and get you up and running? Having a home business or any business down can be big money problems. What ever you need your apple laptop or apple computer for repair is better than buying new or throwing it away.

Laptops are small sized portable computers that can sit on someone’s lap. Since you place the computer on top of your lap, the term laptop has been coined. Often, Apple laptops my go under the name of notebooks due to its size and to a lesser extent its functions. These portable computers serve the same purpose of regular computers but they are convenient to carry around and travel with. In the case of Apple made laptops, they are referred to as iBooks or simply the MacBooks. The Mac is short for Macintosh, which is Apple’s brand name for their computers.

Apple computers can vary drastically from other laptops on the market. One of the primary differences is that they come equipped with Apple operating systems instead of Microsoft based operating systems. However, the ability to run other operating systems on Apple laptops can be done. If your laptop comes with Mac OS X Leopard and you are used to using Windows XP, this can require some knowledge of Mac products. This in itself isn’t a problem but trying to find computer software that’s compatible with Apple may be. Nevertheless, graphic design artist and musicians often prefer Apple based laptops over competitors. This is because Apple clearly has the upper hand in several key points of computer technology. Over the last couple of years, students have left their standard laptop models and have switched to Apple in large numbers. Here are some popular Apple laptops detailing some of there many features.

Not all laptop parts will work with Apple computers. Research should be done beforehand to determine if problems that may arise can be fixed in your area. This is because not all computer technicians are familiar with Apple products since Microsoft based computers dominate the market. Finding parts and people to install them may be very limited.

ConclusionUltimately what it all comes down to is your own personal taste. All laptops work primarily the same and have the same parts but things such as speed, weight and look are often the main areas laptop buyers look into when trying to decide on a laptop. Price and feature wise, Apple laptops are well worth the price. However, as I mentioned earlier, Microsoft, Windows users will need to prepare to get acquainted with the Apple based applications before they make the switch.
