Being the largest ultraportable is something of a dubious honor, like being the healthiest model or the least-convicted child rapist, but Sony wears it with pride, touting its new VAIO VGN-SZ750N/C laptop as just such a beast.

vaioBeing the largest ultraportable is something of a dubious honor, like being the healthiest model or the least-convicted child rapist, but Sony wears it with pride, touting its new VAIO VGN-SZ750N/C laptop as just such a beast.

And the description is true, at only four pounds, it definitely fits as an ultraportable in weight, but the 13.3-inch LED backlit display gives it a very big footprint, something most people don’t care for in ultraportables.

The rest of the specs are impressive, this thing’s got power, but, like the MacBook Air, I just don’t get it, espsecially at $1,899.

The Samsung P2 portable media player usually retails for around $200 but Buy.com has it now for $150. The 4GB model, that is.

The Windows-only pmp is constantly evolving. Samsung periodically updates its firmware, adding new features with each update. So if you purchase it you’re not getting merely what’s in the box. (In fact, if I remember the PowerPoint presentation correctly from the P2’s launch, a new firmware is due sometime this month.) As you know, though, I’m exclusively a Mac guy, so the P2 doesn’t really help me out at all.

I think my Hot Pockets are ready

Most of us here are MacTards but I still have a soft spot in my heart for the many cool cases I’ll never be able to use with my beloved OS X. These cases run the gamut ultra-small to larger than Peter Ha. Our special favorites show up near the end of the slide show and include the Top Gun and the monstrous, dial-covered I-Curve9 from Aerocool.
