First Take

By Darius Chang

Sony claims its Vaio L series is a fusion PC, and we couldn't agree more. Depending on your perspective, it could either be an ungainly portable, or a very expensive but sleek desktop. For this preview, we will categorize this Vaio as the latter. Besides its unique design, the Vaio L differentiates itself from most other desktops by going with a notebook platform, similar to the iMac. The Vaio also includes a built-in battery but, considering its size, we believe it functions more as a UPS (uninterrupted power supply) than for portable computing.

its a decent fusion pc



Rating: 10 out of 10 (Perfect)
Pros: speakers, graphic, very stable
Cons: lousy graphic card, not video out
Opinion:
NA

 

Well designed, ergonomically.



Rating: 8 out of 10 (Excellent)
Pros: SONY speakers upright facing the user, touchpad on the right thus doesn't obstruct fast typing with the inclined keypad, good heat dissipation with the CPU and major components mounted at the back of the LCD screen.
Cons: Viewing angle of built-in camera can't be adjusted.
Opinion:
I had been looking for a portable PC that's well designed ergonomically and VAIO VGC-LA38G came close.

 

Bad...but not quite as the rest



Rating: 4 out of 10 (Mediocre)
Pros: Having the name VAIO on the outside and a battery (useful in blackouts lol)
Cons: Many....it's ungainly looks may attract some, but make some loathe it
Opinion:
slow...well a bit. what's the use of getting a portable desktop when there are notebooks and laptops??? find it weird. can just make this into a cool looking laptop or say this is an LCD TV laptop than saying it's a portable desktop. the name says it all, if it was meant to be a desktop, why make it portable???
