(Redirected from Sony VAIO W series)

The Sony Vaio W series is a series of netbooks, and formerly a series of desktop PCs.

All-in-one desktops (2002)

[edit]

The Sony Vaio W series is a line of all-in-one PCs. It was first launched in Japan, and came to the U.S. market in October 2002, with the first model being PCV-W10.[1] Combining features such as large multimedia speakers, foldable keyboards, a large 15.3 inch display, i.LINK, 1.6 GHz Pentium 4 CPUs with 512 MB RAM, and in some later models TV features, the W series was seen as a high-end multimedia series with great specs for its time. It was replaced by the Vaio L series in 2006.
