    What's the difference between sony vaio vgn tz198n/r to the sony vaio vgn tz198n/rc? I bought a sony vaio tz198n/rc but i received sony vaio vgn tz198n/r, i know the c stand for carbon cover but im not sure if there is a difference. Did i get ripped off for the carbon cover or it the same? Sorry this may be a dumb question...

    Actually, all TZ's have a carbon fiber lid, no matter the color of the lid.

    With the N/RC, the R stands for "Bordeux Red" lid color you have and the C means there's a carrying case included.

    Yes, all TZ's have a lid made of carbon fiber, despite the color.

    Some think that only the TZ's with the "Premium Carbon" color (the middle lid in the below picture) are made of CF, but all models are. :)
