    I'm really pumped for this new Sony Z to come out. Since the SZ I've been somehow finding $3k every 3-4 years to blow on these but they last just long enough for the next model to come out.

    Found this "business perspective" article on the epic rivalry with the MBA... They cover the tech aspects pretty well though:

    The article was a good read, but I doubt the reviewer even has a Vaio Z on his hands.

    Articles I've read that were indepth covered the temperatures of the operating Vaio Z and its about 43'C under load, not to mention its summer in Japan at the time of review.
