Sony - Vaio PCG-K115S


Sony has added yet another family to the huge Vaio range of notebooks, namely the K series. This is aimed at home users who want a desktop replacement notebook without paying a (relatively) huge amount for it. The PCG-K115S sits in the middle of this new range and is a powerful, feature-packed machine.
It's a stylish beast finished in what Sony describes as a polarised pearl finish body and a two-tone silver and grey chassis. It needs to look vaguely attractive, as weighing in at around 4kg this is one notebook that's defiantly desk-bound.
Powering the PCG-K115S is a 2.8GHz Pentium 4 desktop CPU backed up by 512MB of DDR266 memory, although this can be upgraded to 1GB through two SO-DIMM slots, so it's got plenty of power for all your applications. It's got plenty of space for all your applications, too, as it comes with a 60GB hard drive as standard. There's also a Type I/II PC Card slot and, as you might expect from Sony, a Memory Stick slot
