Sony VAIO VPC-YB15KX/S

Netbooks offer a lot of features that buyers are looking for: They're extremely portable, have long lasting batteries, and often come in several colors, all while providing basic computing capabilities. A lot of buyers feel limited by the bare-bones approach, however, and take a pass, whether it's because of their cramped keyboards or tiny screens. The Sony VAIO VPC-YB15KX/S ($599.99 list) may have them thinking twice. Sony's new entry into the netbook market sports an 11.6-inch screen and full-size keyboard and refuses to make sacrifices. The VPC-YB15KX/s has lightweight plastic chassis, though, the metallic silver coloring could easily be mistaken for aluminum - a material popularized by Apple's MacBook Pro line. The plastic construction helps keep the netbook light; it weighs only 3.2 pounds even though it's one of the larger netbooks. It measures 1.25 by 11.43 by 7.99 inches (HWD) - still small enough to slip into a backpack or large purse, but large enough to offer an 11.6 inch screen. Usually, netbooks feature a smaller 10.1-inch screen and offer a 1,024-by-600 resolution; the VPC-YB15KX/s offers a 1,366 by 768 resolution capable of displaying 720p video.

Sony Vaio VPC-YB15KX/S

One of the surprise laptop stars of 2011 has been AMD's new Fusion platform, combining a CPU and GPU on a single chip, and providing a low-cost and decent performance upgrade to Intel's Atom platform. We've seen it most commonly in 11-inch laptops so far (although we've also seen a version in a larger Toshiba C655), and the few models we've tested to date have felt like much more useful machines than Atom-powered 11-inch laptops. Sony was one of the last PC makers to enter the Netbook market, and the company has made some decent (if expensive) ones. Sony is also one of the first PC makers to unofficially ditch the Netbook, and at CES 2011, it introduced the Fusion-powered Vaio YB 11-inch, but no new or even updated Netbooks. The Vaio YB is similar to HP's Pavilion dm1, but adds more RAM and a bigger hard drive, along with a more high-end chassis. That also leads to a more high-end price, and the Vaio YB, in its single currently available configuration (with either pink or silver lids), is $599 versus $449 for the HP. In our benchmark testing, the two systems each came out on top in different tests, but the HP had better battery life.
