Sony's New Z Series Laptops Offer Lightweight Power


No business mobile device does everything, but here's one that tries: the Sony VAIO Z Series.
Finding the right mobile tool for your business can be a balancing act. Smartphones and tablets are portable, but they're limited when it comes to the software they run and the processing power they offer. And while the new wave of lightweight business-class laptop computers can run almost any application, they can't match, say, an iPad for its toss-it-in-the-bag and go factor.
Electronics giant Sony's latest model in its VAIO Z Series of ultra-portable laptops (starting at $1,999) seeks to be the ultimate do-anything portable business device. It combines powerful processors, memory and connection options with a surprisingly small form factor, measuring in at slightly more than half-an-inch thick.
We've been trying out a new Z for several weeks to get a feel for the ins and outs of using one in a small business. While the Z are not low-priced -- a fitted-out model can run close to $2,500 -- these ultra-light laptops offers a ton of business functionality.
