    I'm new to Sony laptops, and I see they have many models like SZ, FE, SZ, C, N... Being a HP and Dell customer, I'm familiar with the terms "Home and Home Office", "Small Business" and such.. so I would like to know how Sony divide their product.

    I can tell it from the screen size, but I also see many models with same screen size but different prices.. maybe the design counts?

    Thanks

    The Vaio N and C series are budget models in the 15.4 inch and 13.3 inch categories, while the FE and SZ are the high end models in those respective categories.

    The Vaio TX series is their ultraportable range, while the BX series refers to their business line.

    The Vaio AR series refer to their desktop replacement notebooks.

    I hope that was useful. :)
