SONY Vaio Computers affected by Intel Sandy Bridge Bug?

Does anyone know, if SONY Computers might be affected by Intels Sandy Bridge Design flaw? It would be perfect, if someone could name Models, that have been shipped with those Chips.

Intel's defective Sandy Bridge Chipsets: Status Report - Notebookcheck.net Reviews

Intel finds Sandy Bridge chipset design flaw, shipments stopped and recalls beginning -- Engadget

How will Notbooks react, if the Intel chip dies?

 

This is about a year old, but you should be fine as this "defect" only affects the SATA ports. And only a few. So, if you're not using those ports you should be fine. Most manufacturers waited for the newer chipsets, those that shipped with the defective chipsets made sure that they didnt use the defective ports. All in all, you should be fine whether or not you get a defective chipset (it's just the southbridge I think)

 

Are there Vaios with Intel's Sandy Brige Technology? If yes, are there Vaio Models that might have faulty parts, as they were assembled in the specific period?

 

Sandy Bridge is i3-2XXX, i5-2XXX, i7-2XXX series of CPUs. Sandy Bridge is just the architecture. There might be a model with faulty parts, although i'm not sure. The models with the Sandy Bridge chips did come out "late" (after intel fixed their chipsets).
