Craig,

I bought a Sony Viao computer (desktop) last year. It was a special sale at Office Max where you get a free 15 inch Sony Trinitron monitor with the purchase of the PC. It has a Zip drive, a video card for frame grabbing and creating .avi files on the fly and an RCA adapter (named after a previously successful American electronics company, you know, the one with the dog and the victrola???) so I can plug in my Sony 8mm video camera output and make digital home movies with editing. I thought it was a good deal.

I looked all over the PC and cannot find a single slot for a not-so-Smart Media card or the Memory Kvist (Swedish for schtick).

So if a buy a new device that uses the Memory Stick I get a coupon for 50 dollars off a new PC??? Give me a break.

Ausdauer

Oh Oh... CPQ, DELL and IBM watch out gues who has started to manufacture laptops......yes SONY. Ah well I guess thats the end the US laptop business. Still I suppose there is alway MSFT, I don't think that SONY could get them unless the DoJ does the demolition job for them and blows away a fine US company.

Regards,
