VAIO E Series PC | Sony | Sony Store USA

I just say these and I couldn't believe what I saw: configured quad i7 Ivy Bridge, AMD 7670m graphics, 1600x900 in a 14in model, and only $999 (Premium Version). As long as the build is superb this looks like my future laptop.

See whereas the other models seem to have become less competitive, this is the model I'd be most likely to go for out of the new range, prices seem really decent, fair materials, good specs, good battery life.

Only issue is that even though it's an inch bigger in screen size then my SB Series its very bloated in size

EDIT: Oh wow, you Americans get some really nice options, can't get a Blu-Ray player, SSD drives or more than 4GB of RAM on Australian/Asian models.

Than again, that means you can just upgrade them yourself for a cheaper price.
