    Wow, I just realized the new Z12 configs don't have downgrade to XP as an option (whereas the Z11 did). >.< That sucks for me. ;/

    XP mode isn't XP; anyway, it's a personal choice and I liked having the available option to use XP.

    Is the Full HD display of the F12 the same as the Premium HD display which the F from Sony Japan has?

    Anybody know what stores have the full HD screens in stock? I'd really like to see one. I'm in NoVA, near Washington DC.
