For over 50 years, Sony has been developing
world-class products and services that add excitement and creativity to your life. Sony is committed
to applying that same ongoing innovation to build a sustainable future.
Engineered
to pioneer
Thinner, lighter VAIO® notebooks require less energy and reduce consumption and depletion of
materials. The majority of VAIO computer models are ENERGY STAR® 4.0 compliant and have
received either EPEAT Gold or Silver rankings. This means they use less power, affecting energy
bills, and reduced greenhouse gas emissions.
More picture quality, less energy wasted
Sony® BRAVIA® TVs and LCDs are developed with the environment in mind. This includes reduced costs
throughout the product lifecycle -- from buying to maintaining to running your Sony TVs and LCD
displays. Most of the BRAVIA® HDTVs are designed to exceed ENERGY STAR® 3.0 Specifications, saving
you money on energy costs while still delivering stunning images. The BRAVIA® VE5 LCD HDTV 52"
version, for example, exceeds ENERGY STAR® 3.0 Specifications by 65.5%*. The ECO-Panel, on a
selection of our newest models reduces power consumption while in use, and the new Eco-Switch on
selected models enables zero power consumption when the display is off.
Sony BRAVIA® HDTVs also feature innovative technology that self adjusts backlight to save power.
Light sensors automatically adjust the brightness of the screen to maximize viewing quality and
minimize energy usage. And on the BRAVIA® KDL-VE5, a Presence Detector sets the television into
standby mode when no motion is detected within a preset amount of time. All to support the
conservation of valuable resources and limit green house gas emissions.
Blu-ray
Disc™ Players go green
In 2008, the unit features 21 percent less power consumption in playback mode and 43 percent reduced
power consumption in stand-by mode.
More than just talking the talk
Sony Ericsson is proud to deliver the most efficient chargers from a standby power point of view,
with all new models after 2005 meeting the requirements for ENERGY STAR®. Sony Ericsson also makes
continuous efforts to reduce energy consumption from all activities. At the Sony Ericsson
manufacturing site, the electricity per manufactured unit was significantly reduced by 24% in 2007
compared to 2005. The goal is to reduce the carbon footprint from Sony Ericsson's own activities by
15% per produced unit by 2009 and 20% by 2011 based on the 2007 figures.
A
Sony innovation, 10 years in the making
Every once in a while, a new technology emerges that changes everything. At just 3mm thin, Sony has
developed an unbelievably thin TV - while advancing image quality to levels that no other TV can
match. This technology is called OLED.
Organic Light Emitting Diode, or OLED, is a technology that uses carbon-based organic material in a
process that converts electric energy into light. This light is used to illuminate the screen and
produce the most astounding results ever seen on a television. OLED emits light and does not require
a backlight-realizing a new TV form of approximately 3mm at its thinnest point. And when these
elements are in their "off" state, they consume no power. The result? OLED TVs use less energy than
LCDs. The OLED display consumes less electricity compared to conventional displays because OLED's
light-emitting structure does not require a separate light source and can be powered using very low
voltages.
Sony Innovative Materials Saves
Participation
in EPEAT™ Program
As a committed participant in the Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool (EPEAT™ )
program, various VAIO® notebooks have been registered for their environmentally conscious design and
the overall eco-conscious efforts of Sony. EPEAT is a tool designed to help you compare and select
products based on their environmental attributes. The majority of VAIO notebooks and desktops are
either registered as Gold or Silver.
Meeting the RoHS Directive
All Sony VAIO computers have PVC-free exterior product casings and packaging. They are also EU
Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive compliant. The RoHS directive restricts the
amount of certain materials such as lead and mercury, used in electronic products. By limiting the
use of hazardous substances, RoHS aims not only to help prevent harmful materials from leaching into
our ecosystems but also helps minimize potential exposure to these substances and promotes easier
recycling at the end of a product's lifecycle.
Sony adopted the use of recycled and reused materials in
several models of our LCDs, and all are EU Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive
compliant, helping prevent harmful materials, such as lead, from leaching into our ecosystem when
improperly disposed while also helping increase recycling and reduce potential chemical exposure
from the manufacturing process. And further keeping green in mind, suppliers for products are
certified as green partners based on Sony's stringent standard for chemical substances used in
products.
All Sony® Blu-ray Disc™ Player parts, and all other Sony products, are lead and cadmium-free, based
on EU RoHS directive restrictions, and major plastic parts of the Blu-ray Disc Player are free of
brominated flame retardants.
Sony Ericsson is the first company to remove brominated flame
retardants from its
mobile
phones and the first to manufacture a full range of products, including accessories, which are also
brominated flame retardant free.
They were also the first in ensuring that every device in their range was fully compliant with the
EU Directive on the restriction of hazardous substances (RoHS). Sony Ericsson phones are PVC free,
and we are currently working to phase out antimony, beryllium and phthalates from our products.
Sony Packaging Is More Than Just Style
Cutting Down on Package Size
Sony is looking at minimizing its impact of its computers on our environment, by reducing the size
of our packaging. VAIO® products utilize 30-95 percent post-consumer recycled content (actual
percentage depends on manufacturing). They also use non-VOC vegetable oil-based ink in all Japanese
made units. On the inside of the box, all Sony-created documentation uses 85% post-consumer recycled
content.
Creating Manuals from Recycled Materials
On the BRAVIA® Series, the product information and packaging, including instruction manuals,
Quick Set-Up Guides and box packaging are made from recyclable materials. Inside the box, the
styrofoam packing cushions are made from reprocessed EPS that's been taken from original parts
packaging, shredded, compacted and recycled into Television packaging cushions. This process
resulted in saving 28 metric tons of polystyred plastic from landfills.
Cutting
Down on Emissions from Shipping
Compared to Sony’s previous BDP-S300 Blu-ray Disc™ model, the new BDP-S350 model reduced the overall
unit size by 55 percent, reduced packing material by 52 percent and reduced the unit’s total weight
by 38 percent. The compact size of the finished package allows Sony to reduce the C02 emissions
related to shipping by approximately 43 percent.
Keep It
Private! 3M Privacy
Filters Help You Comply with Federal Confidentiality Laws
3M Privacy Computer Filters help companies comply with federal legislation
requiring confidential personal information be kept confidential. 3M Privacy
Computer filters can help medical facilities (i.e. hospitals, clinics,
health insurance companies, etc.) comply with the Health Insurance Portability
& Accessibility Act (HIPAA). The privacy filters are a simple accessory
to desktop monitors, both LCD and CRT, as well as laptop computers. They
darken the viewable area of the monitor screen when viewed from the side,
which helps prevent the release of confidential personal information that
must be protected. Similar legislation exists for those in the financial
industry. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) places the same restrictions on banks,
finance companies, mortgage companies and credit card companies, to name
a few. They even help with PCI & SOX! Click

Save Taxes in 2009 & 2010!
Here’s some great
news for our customers who want to cut the costs of sending their kids to
college!
Under the new American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act of 2009, taxpayers who buy PCs for their children in
2009 and 2010 can claim those Desktops, Notebooks, and Netbooks as
qualified higher education expenses.
The Act defines computer-related
qualified expenses as any expense incurred for buying any computer
technology and equipment, as well as Internet access and related services
as long as the equipment and technology is used by the student and the
student’s family during any of the years the student is enrolled at an
eligible educational institution.
All of you who have college-aged kids
know that tuition costs have skyrocketed – so this additional perk is a
welcome benefit. This tax break is only in effect through 2010, so those
who have children in college or kids ready to start school in September
need to start shopping for new PCs now!
Not to be construed as tax advice,
see your tax professional.
Applicable to U.S. Tax Filers only.

What is ExpressCard™ technology? ExpressCard technology is the name
of a new standard introduced by PCMCIA in spring 2003. The ExpressCard
standard delivers thinner, faster and lighter modular expansion to desktop
and notebook computer users. Consumers can add hardware capabilities such as
memory, wired and wireless communications cards and security devices by
simply inserting these modules into their systems. All ExpressCard slots
accommodate modules designed to use either Universal Serial Bus (USB*) 2.0,
or the emerging PCI*Express standards.
What Is
FireWire?
FireWire (also known as the IEEE 1394 interface) is a serial bus interface
standard, for high-speed communications and isochronous real-time data
transfer, used on PCs & MACs , with storage devices, and with digital audio
and digital video devices. The interface is also known by the brand names of
FireWire (Apple's name) and i.LINK (Sony's name).
FireWire has replaced SCSI in many applications, due to lower costs and a
simplified, more adaptable cabling system. IEEE 1394 has been adopted as the
High Definition Audio-Video Network Alliance (HANA) standard connection
interface for A/V (audio/visual) component communication and control.
FireWire is also available in wireless, fiber optic, and coaxial versions.
Almost all modern digital camcorders have included this connection since
1995, as do the vast majority of high end professional audio interfaces.
Since 2003 many computers intended for home or professional audio/video use
have built-in FireWire/i.LINK ports, even some iPods. It is also available
on many motherboards. FireWire has also become a dominant local
storage interface, for use with external storage devices, such as external
hard drives..
Even The Best Hard Drives Die.
Do You Back Up?
Businesses of all sizes
are witnessing an explosion in the volume of data they hold. Whether it is
the result of the Internet, email, or increasingly heavy and media-rich
application software, there is a massive growth in the volume of data all
around. Conservative estimates place data growth at approximately 80% per
year. Data is increasingly being recognized as one of the real assets of a
company, and losing this data would cause severe damage to any organization.
Data loss can be very costly, particularly for
organizations in the small and medium business (SMB) market where the
difference between survival and closure can rest on the ability to recover
from a disaster. At the very least, critical data loss will have a financial
impact on companies of all sizes:

$17,000
Accounting

$19,000
Engineering

$98,000
The financial impact on a company is a combination
of loss of business, low productivity, legal action, and the cost of
re-creating data. A study showed that the cost of re-creating just 20 MB of
data can be extensive!
Your best solution, is an external drive as a
backup. You can have multiple drives, and it is much easier restore
from a portable external drive, as opposed to CDs or DVDs.
Today's Backup Options
With ever increasing hard drive sizes, how do you protect your valuable
data? CDs are only 720+ MBs, and even DVDs are limited to a few
Gigabytes. So what do you do to back up hundreds of Gigabytes? Here
are some great and inexpensive options:
High Capacity USB Thumb Drives: USB Thumb Drives are now
available in sizes as large as 64GB (soon to be even more). While
the USB interface is somewhat slow, these make an ideal solution for their
small compact size. Thumb drives are perfect for storing in files,
or other compact spaces. While their cost per GB is somewhat high,
their convenience, USB interface, size, and extremely light weight, make
them a very attractive option.
External Hard Drives Now you have a wide variety of
options for external hard drives. 1TB (Terabyte) External Drives are
now available for less than $200.00. External drives come in a wide
range of sizes, speeds, and interfaces. They are available with USB
(the slowest), Firewire (medium speed), and SATA/eSATA (the fastest).
When selecting an external drive, it is important to consider how you will
use the drive, and the interface limitations of your computer. If
you have a laptop that only has USB ports, this would be your best
(possibly only) option. If you have USB & Firewire, get a drive that
has Firewire for the performance boost. If your system has a SATA or
eSata port, get a drive with this option - it will give you true hard
drive to hard drive performance.
However, also consider where you might need to restore the data. USB
is the most universal, in that almost all systems have USB ports. If
your system dies, and you need to restore your data, this may be your most
important consideration.
One last consideration is to keep your backup drive continuously
connected, or only connect it during backups. The general idea of
backups is to have a copy of your data in case your system fails - which
they do. But you may also want secure protected backups in a safe or
safe deposit box. Regardless, external hard drives offer an
outstanding solution for backing up your data, and the cost per GB is
quite low.
Hard Drive Docks (Toasters) An incredibly simple, yet
functional new product category emerged in 2008: Hard Drive Toasters (Hard Drive
Docks). This device lets you plug in regular internal hard drives as
though they were pop-in flash drives. You drop in your hard drive,
and the dock instantly gives your system access to that drive, without
wiring, or power connections - it's all done by the hard drive toaster.
This way you can use any compatible hard drive as an external removable
hard drive for backup purposes!
Online Backup Still another option is to use an
online backup service. These come in two forms:
• Backup to another computer over the Internet
• Backup to a central server using the Internet
The first of these can work very well, and automatically backups when you
are online. The Microsoft OneCare service is one example. It
can backup your data from your system to another in your OneCare account
across the Internet automatically, regardless of where you are.
The second involves trusting your critical data to someone else's servers,
and usually no real guarantee that your data will always be there.
If they loose your data, they just refund your fee. This service may
be fine for a couple of letters, but business critical data needs to be
accessible forever. For this reason, you are better advised to look
to a hardware solution that you control.
Backup Software Many products come with backup
software included, such as External Hard Drives, and Antivirus products
like
CA Security Suite. Most offer excellent features for automated
backups. But remember, backup software and devices, are only as good
as your willingness to use them! So backup regularly, and backup often.
Why Do I Have
Less Drive Space?
Your hard drive may show less space than the published specifications due to
a number of reasons.
The way size is calculated and
displayed.
Any "Partitions" on the disk will
change the total in a specific partition.
Hidden files and folders decrease
available space.
Compression increases the apparent
size, but not the physical size.
Drives larger than the OS or Drivers
natively supports.
First, the definition of a megabytes
(or gigabytes) is a unit of data storage capacity measured in 1,048,576
bytes (or 1024KB). The larger the numbers, the more apparent the size
difference will be when listing the size as megabytes (or gigabytes) versus
bytes. Actually, both numbers are correct. The noticeable difference is due
to the 1024KB definition of a megabyte. This is why a 95.3GB hard drive can
also be listed as having 102 billion bytes of total space. Just think
of it as "round off" In the screen shot at right: The first number is the total number of bytes,
the second number is based on the number of megabytes or gigabytes.
Second, some computers have a
non-DOS hard drive partition that is used for features such as Save to Disk,
Hibernation, or Recovery. This partition is not normally reported by the
operating system, although it can be viewed using a disk partition utility.
This is very common on desktops and laptops. NOTE: Partition information will be created or
formatted automatically during initial system setup and a system recovery.
Third, by default, all system files
are hidden and cannot be seen. This may adversely affect the reporting of
available hard drive space. You can set your Folder Options so you view
system and hidden files and folders, but do be careful as changes to system
files can adversely affect your system.
Fourth, if you turn on Compression
for a drive, it will increase reported free space and used space, but since
compression is based upon the actual contents, this number is not fixed, but
will change as files are added or changed.
Fifth, older operating systems did
not support some of today's larger drives, so the total space reported may
be much smaller than the drive specifications.
It is also worth noting that bad sectors
are corrected by your operating system and can change the total drive space,
free space, or used space as well.
So as long as a drive is reporting a value
approximately close to the specification value, you can be comfortable that
you received the right drive and that you are getting to correct data
storage. Of course, tuning of your drive's partitions and options can
yield optimal values, but this is not something for the average user to
explore.
What Is A Cell? It's a
battery
Though technically a battery has multiple cells, we are accustomed to calling a
single energy cell a battery as well.
In
electronics, a battery or voltaic cell is a combination of many electrochemical
Galvanic cells of identical type to store chemical energy and to deliver it in
the form of electricity. The battery cells combine to produce more energy
(voltage or amps) than a cell by itself. When joined in this way, it is a
battery of cells. Almost all portable electronics use one or more cells -
rechargeable or disposable. The more cells, the more energy available -
meaning more hours of use usually.
In Notebook computers, the battery case usually
holds three or more cells. 3 Cell batteries tend to provide about 1-3
hours of use, depending on the energy needs of the Laptop. 6 cell (or
more) batteries provide much more energy, and many more hours of use. This
can be good or bad! More cells mean longer use, but more weight too!
So remember to always check for the number of
cells if specified, and choose the right configuration for your use.
Battery Trivia:
The invention of the first battery (known as a Voltaic pile) was in 1800 by
Alessandro Volta! The first known usage of the battery (as we know it
today) was in 1863 by the physician named Flora Bills.
Got Enough
Memory? Bet You'll Need More!
Windows Vista and today's software
applications make much greater demands on your system's memory. Adding
peripherals, like webcams, USB hard drives, and complex Internet pages, all
take memory. Watching DVD movies, or watching videos on the web, or
playing PC based games demand increased memory. So take full
advantage of your system's potential, your operating system's enhancement
and entertainment capabilities, and your software's productivity by expanding
your system memory!
The best time to
add more memory is when you buy your system! Get the memory that's
right for your computer, whether laptop, desktop, or All-In-One.

Shared
Memory? Or Where Did My Memory Go?
Your computer uses memory to run your
Operating System, applications, peripherals, and to generate and display
graphics on your computer monitor. Video memory is a form of RAM, and is
either built into your motherboard; or on a graphics card (video card).
Depending on the motherboard's configuration, and that of the video card (if
separate or built-in to the motherboard), your computer may have to draw on
its own RAM memory to meet its video memory needs. This creates shared
memory, where your computer’s RAM will be shared between its own Processor
(CPU) and its graphics chip.
The result is that some systems will have
shared memory, some will not. If you have 2GB (for example) of system
memory installed, you may notice that your system reports significantly less
memory. This is because your system is using shared memory for your
video.
What can you do about this?
You can actually configure this shared memory through your computer’s BIOS
settings. However, this is a setting best left alone, since it is
typically optimized for display performance, and making changes may impact
display resolutions, and other video capabilities.
The simplest solution is usually to either:
increase your system memory; or to upgrade the video hardware. By
upgrading to a new video card with built-in video memory, then turning off
shared memory, you will free your system to use it's maximum potential
memory, and provide your system with much more robust video features.
How Much
Memory Do You Really Have?
When you look at the specifications for a computer, it will display the
installed memory, and typically the maximum memory that can be installed.
However, while these are real values, they represent a potential useable
memory depending upon the installed operating system, and other factors. The actual useable memory may be different
(lower) from these values.
The reason is simply that a computer may have a limitation in the operating
system (such as Windows 32 bit versions), or configured to use shared memory,
which reduces the amount of RAM that is available to the CPU by using
some of it for other purposes, such as for video memory. In some
cases, you can control the maximum useable memory through system settings,
by upgrading from a 32 bit to a 64 bit version of Windows XP or Vista, or by upgrading to a video card that has internal onboard video memory.
But always
remember, that the amount of memory that your system reports, is not always
the amount of actual installed memory. For example, if you have 4GB
installed, 32 bit versions of Windows will typically report 3.2GB due to a
limitation of Windows itself. Also note that different Windows
programs report available and maximum memory differently, which can be
confusing. If you find that you need more
memory, we suggest expanding your system memory, since this is the most
effective performance increase, and the one that is easiest to perform .
Sony XBRITE Superior
Viewing Experience! Inspired
by High-Definition Television (HDTV) technology, XBRITE™ displays
are engineered to provide razor-sharp detail and comfortable viewing.
The high
brightness level of an XBRITE™ display means that black tones appear
richer and deeper while white tones remain brighter. Graphics and text
display clearly and colors appear more lifelike. XBRITE™ technology
provides a better representation of true colors than a standard LCD display
or a standard tube display.
XBRITE™ displays feature a special multi-layer anti-reflection coating
on the screen surface. The coating reduces glare and ambient light reflection,
reducing eye fatigue. The coating also gives the display a wider viewing
angle than a standard LCD display.
Most LCD displays use a single lamp to illuminate the screen. XBRITE™
displays feature dual-lamp illumination for more evenly distributed light
across the entire screen. This provides a brighter, more consistent display
while maintaining a low power consumption profile.
XBRITE™
LCD displays also feature faster video response times than standard displays.
For this reason, XBRITE™ displays are perfect for watching DVDs.
Also, video games, photo slide shows and other graphics-intensive applications
are clearer and more lifelike.
What Is USB 2.0?
USB 1.1 was great when it was introduced almost a decade ago. But
the newer USB 2.0 transfers data dramatically faster - up to 40 times
quicker. Plus, USB 2.0 provides additional bandwidth for multimedia and
storage applications, which are growing larger every year. Also to your
advantage is the fact that USB 2.0 is forward and backward compatible with
USB 1.1, which means that cables and connectors made for the original USB
configuration will also work perfectly in a USB 2.0 port, though some newer
devices are specifically designed for USB 2.0. It is always a good
idea to verify the version of USB supported by each device you want to use.

The high
brightness level of an XBRITE™ display means that black tones appear
richer and deeper while white tones remain brighter. Graphics and text
display clearly and colors appear more lifelike. XBRITE™ technology
provides a better representation of true colors than a standard LCD display
or a standard tube display.
