1. Comment - Sony's Vaio P: Slim and sexy, but don't call it a 'netbook'

   (Jan 10, 2009 - 6:48 AM)

   I agree with this, i have no idea why they would call it a notebook, it is obviously more of a netbook.
   The screen resolution is capped as well, if i remember correctly.
   
   I have to say though, i love how they took VGA and eth out onto the charger, thats an interesting idea.
   As long as wireless is built in, you wouldn't really need the ethernet. Nice move Sony.
   And being able to access things directly using XMB instead of loading up a full OS is nice, just nice.
   
   Sadly, they crippled it for me by using those little mouse "nubs", i dislike them... i'd have rather had touchscreen, or even full keyboard control (like the one for the PS3s keyboard attachment)
   While it isn't as precise, they could still have the nub if you do require some sort of precision, which in most cases, isn't. (especially considering this is a portable)
   edit: and even then, the buttons are so close together it is unlikely you'd touch the actual keyboard frame, so no need for touch-sensors on there, so no uneven movement either.
   Also, Vista as well, Vista on something like this is just crazy. (Vista on anything is crazy IMO)

2. Comment - Rather than fire people, Dell will reduce packaging costs

   Now i really like this idea.
   I am glad Dell took this route, rather than have to lay people off.
   More companies should consider doing things like this to cut costs.
   I would even gladly return any packaging to a company if i could, i know i won't be needing it anymore.
   
   Cutting jobs is never a good thing to do...
