IP: slight add on for the Sony Baio Notebook

[Dave Farber <farber () cis upenn edu>]

The current model -- the VAIO PGC505-EX sold in Japan for about 295,000 Yen
 is a 233mh Pentium machine which is notably faster than the 505 and has a
longer battery life due a newer technology chip. Also the Screen is a 10.4
TFT. 


It can be seen at

You might ask why I got the old one. Beggars cannot be choosers and one of
my friends kindly gave me one of the 505s that was being replaced by a 505EX.


I found it a winner and the EX will be better.


Also there were endless other similar systems in Japan. I felt the Sony has
the best "hand".
