Vaio Z

[Guest]

Hello,

May be I come late, but how is it possible that Sony stopped the production of the Vaio Z series?? The only similar laptop is the Macbook Pro... I believe they lost a good segment of the market...
really a pity

"The rise of more affordable Ultrabooks that could match the Vaio Z in weight, if not raw performance, could be a reason for this decision. Another possibility is that Sony may be focusing on touch-enabled devices with the arrival of Windows 8. So far, we haven't seen any news of the Vaio Z in Sony's recent product announcements. In fact, the similarly premium Vaio Duo 11 could be seen as an alternative to the Vaio Z."

I have a feeling that there will be a replacement in June/July with the launch of Intel Haswell.
