Whether you're looking for a lightweight laptop for frequent travel or just need a compact PC within easy reach around the house, the Sony VAIO YB3 Series laptop PC is a great option at only 3.23 pounds. Its thin profile and compact 11.6-inch screen size make it a cinch to tote or easily slip in and out of carrying cases. And you'll get up to 5.75 hours of on-the-go battery life.The 11.6-inch LED backlit widescreen display laptop offers lower power consumption for improved battery life while providing incredibly high brightness levels that amplify colors and deliver clear, crisp picture quality to bring your movies and pictures to life--even spreadsheets will look amazing.
It's powered by a dual-core AMD E-450 accelerated processor (APU), which combines a CPU and a graphics processing unit (GPU) on a single chip, helping to accelerate daily applications while also delivering lower power consumption. The APU can quickly offload demanding tasks and applications from your CPU to the GPU, enabling you to do more with your computer in less time.
You can connect this VAIO to a compatible HDTV via the HDMI port to display your creations to a larger audience via a single cable. It also includes Wireless-N Wi-Fi networking (802.11n), which offers ultra-fast speeds, wider range, and compatibility with 802.11b/g networks as well. And the integrated camera with face-tracking technology and microphone makes it easy to video chat with family, friends, and co-workers.
