Overview

The Sony VAIO VGN-AW Series is a range of mid to very high-end desktop replacemement laptops released by Sony in 2008. They were mostly intended for media consumption, and for home use, as well as creative work for higher-end models.

Lower-end AW models featured a titanium gray plastic case, and higher-end models features a magnificent metal mat black case, while the top-end models featured a glossy black case (called Premium Piano Black), with a premium-feeling rubbery palmrest.

Lower-end models had no subwoofer, and a reasonably good CCFL 1680x945 display, while higher-end models had a 1920x1080 panel with CCFL (high-end), or LED (top-spec) backlight technlogy. The LED models were highly praised for their excellent picture quality, color reproduction, and overall sharpness.

The AW Series was offered with a choice of Penryn Intel Core 2 Duos, as well as a NVIDIA GeForce 9300M GS for the lower-end models, and a 9600M GT for the higher-end ones.
