Intel VT-x support was intentionally disabled in the laptop's BIOS, resulting in the use of hacked BIOSes by some users. The CPUs are generally Core 2 Duo P- (mid voltage) CPUs, but also T- (standard voltage) CPUs. Other features include a 0.3 megapixel webcam, Bluetooth, SD and Memory Stick reader, fingerprint sensor and Trusted Platform Module support.Īs with the SZ series, the Z is equipped with standard, rather than ultra-low voltage (which are slower, but produce less heat and provide better battery life), processors.

Newer options with the Z series are an integrated Blu-ray Disc drive, built-in HSDPA support and the use of an SSD (including RAID configuration, for better performance) instead of a hard drive for storage. The user can switch between the Nvidia (for better graphics performance) and Intel (for longer battery life) via a 3 way switch above the keyboard.
In comparison to the SZ, which was available only in 1280×800 resolution, the Z series come with a choice (model-dependent) of screens, originally 1366×7×900 and more recently models 1600×9×1080.Īs with the SZ, the Z has hybrid graphics, originally NVIDIA GeForce 9300M GS as well as Mobile Intel 4 Series Express 4500MHD chipsets more recently the Nvidia chip is a 330m. 13.3") screen, which was switched from 16:10 to 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio. They were configured with Intel Core 2 Duo CPUs.Ĭompared with the SZ series, the Z is slightly lighter (200 grams), with a slightly smaller (13.1" vs. They fall into the ultraportable category, with a 13.1" screen and 1.47 kg weight (3.4 lb) (dependent on configuration). Second series was introduced in December 2009 as a part of the Intel Centrino 2 launch. In 2008 the first series of VGN-Z was introduced.

It ran Win98 and included Sony's DV-Gate software for importing video from DV camcorders. It had a Pentium II processor running at 366 MHz. The original Z featured a color 12" TFT screen with 1024x768 resolution, Firewire (i-Link), a USB 1.0, and a PCMCIA slot and external CD and Floppy Drives, and weighed 1.5 kg with carbon parts.
