    I mean, I know that it's a hybrid (tablet/laptop).
    The thing is, can it handle itself being switched on 24/7?

    My ipad mini can handle the 24/7 (Been going on for a year now) without any significant decrease in battery life nor performance issue with softwares downloaded onto it. What about Sony Vaio Duo 13?

    Reason I asked also is because roughly around 2 years ago,
    I got the sony vaio Z (2nd gen), the one with i7 and ssd card.
    I used that in a 24/7 operation playing games such as diablo 3.
    It got busted about 1.5 years after purchase :(.
    Sony only gave like 1 year warranty (Inconvenient)

    What exactly happened? Did it overheat?
