Ah yes – finally I have a new laptop. And it’s a peach. Thanks to LaptopsDirect for another great delivery and thanks to Sony for building it in the first place.
It’s packing a Core i7 processor, 6GB RAM, 128GB SSD, stonking graphics and it’s tiny 13” screen has a 1600x900 resolution. Sweet. It also weighs slightly less than the cup of coffee that’s sitting next to me at the moment.
In terms of business laptop, it has a TPM chip which needs enabling, then once bitlockered it complied with all the security requirements for DirectAccess which means that I don’t need the PCMCIA slot (which it doesn’t have) once I’ve done the one time certificate enrolment.
And it’s fast. Very fast. (That’s my best scientific benchmarking effort).
