    It looks like the only way to get anything above an I5 processor in a Vaio with at least a 15 inch screen, I have to go to the F or EC, correct? What I really want is a 15" screen, so even the F is a bit bigger than I'd like.

    But even if I decided to go to the EB and get the biggest I5, it looks like my screen resolution would be 2 steps down from the F's FHD option, right?

    The Z is interesting, but the screen is simply way to small for my needs. It just seems odd that Sony does not offer the premium screens and processors in any of the 14 or 15 inch screen models. Am I missing something?
