S > Sony Vaio VGN-Z46GD
Hi, I want to upgrade my current laptop which is the Sony Vaio VGN-Z46GD which I also hope to sell.
It is a business-grade laptop so it's not a piece of cheap plastic you can usually find in current laptops even though they have newer specs. I'm asking for $700 ono.
The specifications here are:

- Memory: 6 GB DDR3
- Display: 13.1 (33.3 cm) wide (WXGA++: 1600 x 900) TFT
- Hard Disk Drive: 320 GB (7200 rpm)
- Optical Disc Drive: DVD±RW/±R DL/RAM Drive
- Graphics Accelerator: NVIDIA® GeForce® 9300M GS notebook graphics processing unit (GPU) (SPEED MODE) / Mobile Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD (STAMINA MODE)
- Keyboard: Approx. 19 mm key pitch/2.5 mm keystroke , 82 keys
- Dimensions (WxHxD): 314 x 24.5-33.0 x 210 mm
- Weight: 1.48 kg (including the supplied battery)

$700 is cutting it pretty close to Ultrabook territory now. That said, those sort of business laptops depreciate like rocks in a pond — they cost boatloads when new but give it a year or so when the CPU and GPU becomes outdated, and nobody wants em'…
I dig that super hi-res display though. Wish my Lenovo E320 had WXGA panels and discrete GPU…

Ultrabooks still can't get a higher res? come on..

No not really, just how fast technology depreciates.Going to take any offers now around ~$600

Used for 1-2years + core 2 duo + 13.3" with the very historical 9300M graphic card, this laptop is not even worth more than $350 nowadays. I would suggest you just keep it for your own usage.
The resolution cannot go higher than that is simply because it's the maximum pixels density that can be observed by eye. Going higher resolution than that would be completely a newer technology which is just introduced in the new ipad.
Go to learn what's ultrabook first before you whining on it.
Oh, is that Window Vista?

w/e ill just put it on ebay…and damn the fees.

It's a nice looking laptop, but what would've help the selling is if you actually photograph the FRONT of the laptop, not just the shiny Vaio logo on the lid?
Anyhow, I now know a fellow Ozbargainer's mobile number :)

Alas that is not mine…but I did buy it and then sell it on ebay.Profit ???
