1148120	2010-10-27 08:54:00	www.bondandbond.co.nz Wow, cool. A Sony Vaio Netbook selling for $2500? I wonder what's so special about this Netbook. I mean, even Apple, a brand I associate with expensive, has similar stuff for cheaper price. Funny that. www.magnummaconline.co.nz www.magnummaconline.co.nz www.magnummaconline.co.nz	LynX (14542)
1148121	2010-10-27 09:04:00	Any person that wanted one probably.	Snorkbox (15764)
1148122	2010-10-27 09:13:00	64GB SSD probably has something to do with it - good flash storage isn't cheap.	Erayd (23)
1148123	2010-10-27 10:14:00	VAIOs are not cheap, they're very popular, it's a bit of a fashoin statement i think, if you have an acer, and the guy next to you has a vaio, guess who's gonna get the girl. the dude with the vaio.	jareemon (5207)
1148124	2010-10-27 10:17:00	Also, you'll notice this vaio is very slim and light, meaning the parts are indeed smaller than most netbooks, thus more expensive. Being a sony vaio, the build quality is premium, probably with an expensive magnesium chassis. Add to this the retailer's markup and you've just blown your wad.

She'll probably go for the one who's actually looking at her (i.e. the one without a computer) :p	pcuser42 (130)

1148127	2010-10-27 20:41:00	Ha! Bond and Bond = FAIL . Even Ascent (who are not the cheapest around) have this model priced at $1999 . 95, a full $500 cheaper! Admittedly, they don't have any stock at the moment, but I would be extremely surprised if new stock at Ascent was priced anywhere near the Bond and Bond price . . . .	johcar (6283)
1148128	2010-10-28 03:29:00	Hmmm, thats a full $900 more expensive then the new macbook air 11'. And the macbook air has better spec's. This can't be right store.apple.com	plod (107)
1148129	2010-10-28 04:01:00	Wow, more expensive than a Mac. Sony must have done something wrong. Then again Macs are getting cheaper. Hmmm, thats a full $900 more expensive then the new macbook air 11'. And the macbook air has better spec's. This can't be right store.apple.com 'bout time apple made netbooks.	icow (15313)
