Sony VAIO FW VGN-FW198U Should Be a Your Best Partner
Intel’s famous and long-awaited Montevina platform (now officially known as Centrino 2) was just launched around one and a half months ago, on July the 15th, the first products based on it arriving almost at same time with the official announcement. And one of these early implementations of Montevina is the Sony Vaio FW notebook, a 16.4-inch portable computing system that was officially launched back in mid-July and that brought to the market a few very interesting features, mostly related to the design and multimedia playback and less to other activities involving a notebook (such as gaming).
We’re not saying that the FW is not gaming-capable, but the truth of the matter is that it’s mainly designed for those people who want to surf the web, view movies (even in Blu-ray format), or work with various documents and photos… in other words, a complete multimedia and office system, but not exactly the type of machine on which one would run Crysis, for example.
