Sony’s 18.4-inch Type A VAIO laptop was already impressive enough when it made its debut in Japan earlier this month, but it looks like the slightly revised VAIO AW just announced for the UK has now taken things one step further. Of course, there’s not much room to upgrade that 1,920 × 1,080 18.4-inch display, but you can expect to get a slightly speedier T9600 Core 2 Duo processor and, most notably, a 128GB SSD drive that’s joined by a 500GB SATA drive in a RAID arrary, something Sony describes as a “world’s first.” Also, it looks like prices for this monster actually start at a fairly reasonable £999 (or just over $1,700), but you can pretty safely bet that any “world’s first” features will demand a hefty premium.
