Design Exercise 11 involved researching and evaluating 3 Distinct Platforms of Digital Design. For my 3 platforms i decided to do the iPhone, a Samsung TV and a Sony Vaio Touchscreen PC. I wanted to focus on things i either already have or on things that i am interested in. I already own the TV and iPhone and am very keen on the Sony Vaio!
In this post i will look at the Sony Vaio L Series. The L series is a new all-in-one touchscreen offering from electronics giant Sony. I have always been a fan of Sony Products having already owned a few Sony products in the past. I currently own a Sony Vaio laptop which i think its great, i would only intend to buy Sony again in the future.
This latest touchscreen from Sony has really caught my eye. It has a large 24" multi-touch screen with full HD. Having interacted with the screen i must say, it is very impressive. The screen is very sensitive when touched and offers great resolution. It is also available with a Blu-Ray player which also enhances the products pull.
Touchscreens are opening doors socially allowing users to interact with computers in ways that they couldn't before. This device offers the user a fully interactive web experience. No mouse or keyboard are needed to use the device to its full potential.
Sony are a latecomer to this particular field, this being their first multi-touch computer. It has been produced to compete with HP's range of touch-screens. The new Sony comes with Windows 7 64 bit built in along with its own software to help the user make the most of the touchscreen.
Like any Windows based computer the Sony Vaio is fairly simple to hack/modify. The OS can easily be pirated along with the majority of software available. In terms of physically stealing the device it isn't that easy due to its rather large screen and weight.
