Space-saving design
The smooth, curved lines of the VAIO® FW notebook are as functional as they are attractive. From the iconic cylindrical hinge to the sloping bezel where the keyboard meets the display, every last inch of this notebook is designed to maximize viewing area while minimizing size. The result: an innovative PC with a 16.4" LCD1 that combines all the benefits of a 17" widescreen display with the dimensions or "footprint" of a smaller 15.4" model.
 
 
Wider LCD workspace for multi-tasking
A great productivity tool, the VAIO® FW notebook's extended widescreen display lets you view two documents or web sites side-by-side without tabbing back and forth. This convenient, time-saving feature typically found in larger notebooks and desktops is further complemented by XBRITE-FullHD™ LCD technology (select notebooks), which delivers crystal-clear picture quality and 100% color saturation.

Desktop performance
It all starts with the latest from Intel. Intel® Centrino® 2 Processor Technology delivers unprecedented processing power, expanded wireless connectivity, enhanced multimedia support and greater efficiency. Add to this loads of RAM, ample storage and an array of inputs/outputs, and you get desktop power and convenience packed into a highly mobile notebook.
 
 
Multimedia power
The FW notebook is ideal for those in the creative fields. The spacious 16.4"1 widescreen display can easily accommodate multi-display design programs, such as Adobe® Photoshop® (sold separately). Optional Blu-ray Disc™ technology enables you to enjoy2, create and store up to 50GBs of hi-def content. An HDMI™ output (HDMI cable required and sold separately) allows you to output hi-def content in full 1080p HD to compatible TVs. And external ATI graphics with up to 1GB of VRAM3 will help power you through the most graphics-intensive media today.

Stripped-down software load
Select FW notebooks feature a greatly reduced software load for a quicker set up. This not only saves time during set up, it also allows employees to get up and running on their new computers faster, which enhances overall productivity for both IT Professionals and employees alike.
 
 


Footnotes:
1. Viewable area measured diagonally.
2. Certain circumstances may limit/prevent Blu-ray Disc™ media playback.
3. Total Available Graphics Memory refers to the new Windows® 7 classification of graphics memory, which varies depending on the operating condition, version of device driver and system memory size.
