Virtualization Technology is not supported on VAIO. *3 If memory modules of the same capacity are installed to both of the two memory module slots, the supported
dual channel mode provides better performance. *4 A portion of the system memory over 3GB may not be available to the operating system. Sony does not guarantee compatibility with memories of other brands. *5 GB means one billion
bytes when referring to hard disk drive capacity. Accessible capacity may vary. A portion of hard disk space is reserved as a recovery partition. *6 Compatibility confirmed with Sony branded “Memory Stick” media only. *7 The maximum
communication distance can vary depending on the obstacles or the distance between the communication devices, the radio waves, the operating system or the software being used. *8 The communication speed varies depending on the
distance between communication devices, existence of obstacles between such devices, the device configuration, the radio conditions, and the software in use. In addition, communication may be cut off depending on the radio conditions. *9
Including cards that can be inserted in direct slots and the supplied memory card adaptor (VGP-MCA20A). *10 As for the Memory Stick PRO media, only Sony branded media is recommended to use with the memory card adaptor (VGP-
MCA20A). *11 The copyright protection and high-speed data transfer features of the SD Memory Card are not supported (VGP-MCA20A). *12 Estimated battery life (under JEITA Battery Run Time Measurement Method ver. 1.0). Actual battery
life may vary with different operating conditions and settings. For further details, please visit vaio-online.sony.com *13 Though the software is not pre-installed, the official license is registered. It can be downloaded free of charge. *14 This
software is intended for evaluation purposes only. It must be activated before actual use, and the activation procedures will be detailed during initial launch. Activation requires Internet access, which enables certain functions included. This
software has an expiration date of 60 days from date of first use, at which time the software will operate under reduced-functionality mode, limiting options and operations. *15 Free use of 90 days. Further update will be charged. *16 This
product may only function with a genuine Sony battery designed for this model. *17 Warranty conditions may vary by region.
