a reconfigured battery and motherboard design. The result is a brilliant,
15.4” widescreen display
in the body of a portable, thin-and-light

volume all with one-touch ease.

An A/V fan’s dream PC, the VAIO
® FZ notebook includes a full set of
dedicated multimedia controls just above the keyboard. A round A/V
interface jumps out of the clean design of the VAIO FZ, adding a unique
and practical touch to its sophisticated appearance. These intuitive
music and video controls are user
-friendly, so you can easily control
your CDs, DVDs, pictures and home movies with the push of a button.
The VAIO® FZ is a thin-and-light entertainment notebook
featuring a 15.4” widescreen LCD with XBRITE-ECO™
technology and embedded A/V controls for one touch access to
your music, movies and pictures. With a built-in camera and
