Inside your home is where the VAIO NR27G belongs. Its natural design, fun new software and AV Mode shortcut key make it the perfect home entertainment companion. And when its time to move, the slim, lightweight design provides easy portability to any room in your home. The wide 15.4 display and truly enjoyable interface assure comfortable operation for just about any home computing task.
With its comfortably warm design and chic silver granite colour, the VAIO NR27G blends in well with both your interior and lifestyle. The lightly dimpled surface suggests the feel of fine fabric pleasingly tactile and inviting to the touch. Atop a table, it seems to float lightly, a subtle illusion that is the hallmark of the VAIO design. Gently rounded corners impart a soft, friendly feeling and allow it to slip effortlessly in and out of your bag without snagging. Youll also appreciate the new layout, which has been redesigned for fast, clutter-free access to all interfaces and controls.
Inspired home entertainment
The playful new VAIO NR27G comes loaded with VAIO original software that lets you easily create, capture and share audio and visual content. For high-quality home movies without the bother, try Sonys VAIO Movie Story powerful software that distills complex movie production into three simple steps. Use the cool Sony-designed templates to quickly produce great looking movies or give your creativity free reign with the editing tools. Also included is Click to Disc / Click to Disc Editor for easy burning of DVDs. Audio buffs will enjoy smart VAIO MusicBox, which plays songs from your music collection that fit your current mood. Powered by Sonys own 12 Tone Analysis algorithm, this intelligent software deconstructs sound wave data into 12 tones in order to categorise each song by mood, activity or moment. Lastly, the conveniently located AV Mode key provides speedy access to all your AV applications via the new VAIO Launcher.

Outstanding performance

The VAIO NR27G is ideal for all your home computing and AV requirements. Containing the Intel Pentium Dual-Core T2370 (1.73GHz) and Mobile Intel GL960 Express Chipset at FSB 533MHz, this cutting-edge technology delivers outstanding efficiency and rock-solid reliability. Windows Vista Home Premium comes pre-installed and provides more intuitive operation, improved search functions and new speech recognition capability. Memory Stick and SD Memory Card slots make it easy to share data, and the DVD drive writes to DVDRW/R DL/RAM media for outstanding compatibility. The VAIO NR27G is also equipped with Sonys 15.4" wide Clear Bright LCD Lite for superb readability and sharp colour definition.
