Sony Vaio V505DC2P5

It’s eye-popping and jaw dropping when Sony Vaio V505DC2P5 comes into presence. It’s a beautiful notebook with the combination of both metallic light purple and black colors. It’s compact, slim, and sexy and has the “VAIO” letters crafted at the front cover.

This breathtaking dude runs Microsoft Windows XP Professional Edition with the ever-powerful Intel Pentium 4 2.2 GHz processor. I reckon the supplied 256MB of DDR266 (PC2100) memory may be too little, because to run the above-mentioned operating smoothly you would need at least 512MB. However, you can always upgrade it by adding another memory module underneath the keyboard (which I find a bit troublesome though).

Vaio V505DC2P5 offers a huge amount of 60GB hard drive, more “generous” than other notebook manufacturers. CD-RW / DVD-ROM Combo Drive seems like a standard feature in a notebook nowadays, guess it’s a great move.

The Vaio V505DC2P5 is a lightweight notebook and is ultra portable. Weighing just 4.4 pounds and taking a look at its dimension (10.9” x 1.4” x 9.5”) will reveal why. All ports and slots are easily accessible, and the user need not dig and turn around the laptop to attach your external devices.

Oh yeah, there’s also a port replicator that comes as an accessory for easy expandability.

I have no major complaint about this notebook accept some minor ones, like hard access of memory slot and no WiFi capability. Other than these an all thumbs up from me. If portability matters, you ought to consider the Sony Vaio V505DC2P5.
