Sony Vaio P-series Lifestyle PC review

Sony likes to aim its Vaio products towards higher-end buyers, and generally eschews the budget end of the market, although there are a handful of less expensive Vaios that we've reviewed favourably. When it comes to systems powered by Intel's Atom, it's no different.

Sony's entry into the burgeoning mini-laptop category -- the Vaio P-series Lifestyle PC -- shares much with netbooks such as the Dell Inspiron Mini 9 or those in the Asus Eee PC range, but clearly goes out of its way to avoid being lumped in with them -- Sony doesn't even call it a netbook.
