Sony VAIO VPC-YB15KX/S

With its speedy dual-core AMD E-350 processor, large 500GB hard drive, and a size that is at once compact and large enough for comfortable typing and viewing, the Sony VAIO VPC-YB15KX/S is a strong new entry in the netbook market.

Powerful dual-core AMD E-350 processor is top of the line. The 500GB hard drive offers lots of storage space. Large 11.6-inch screen. Bluetooth, media card readers, Web cam, and more.

Some bloatware pre-installed.

Sony Vaio VPC-YB15KX/S review: Sony Vaio VPC-YB15KX/S

Sony Vaio VPC-YB15KX/S

Uses AMD's excellent new Fusion CPU/GPU platform; sharp Vaio design; large hard drive.

More expensive than other AMD Fusion systems; limited configurations; some keyboard and touch pad compromises.

Sony ditches the Netbook for this more upscale AMD-powered ultraportable, with good performance and features, but also an upscale price.
