Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Developed for uncompromising individuals who won't settle for anything but the best, the Sony Vaio PCV-RZ26G desktop is an awesome mixture of power and versatility. Whether used for business, home, or leisure pursuits, Sony's most luxurious "Digital Studio" to date is ready for many years of upgrade-free computing.

If speed is what you crave, the Vaio PCV-RZ26G delivers. Outfitted with a lightning-fast 3.06 GHz Intel Pentium 4 processor, a stunning 1 GB of premium PC-2700 333 MHz DDR memory, and a 533 MHz bus, the system is perfect for those who drive their computers beyond reasonable expectations. The only potentially suspect component is the graphics card, a 64 MB nVidia GeForce4 MX440. Although fully capable of handling the vast majority of applications, and equipped with a convenient TV tuner, it may have some problems smoothly rendering ultrahigh-end 3-D games and drawing or animation packages.

When it comes to the storage and movement of data, Sony has left nothing to chance. The Vaio PCV-RZ26G is fitted with an enormous 160 GB 7,200 rpm Ultra ATA/100 hard disk for your frequently accessed programs and files, a 3.5-inch floppy disk drive for older or smaller applications, and a combination DVD-RW/CD-RW drive through which you can burn and play audio CDs, archive information, watch the latest cinematic releases, and create your own DVDs. For fast interaction with peripherals such as digital camcorders, scanners, and external drives, the system also features a half-dozen high-speed USB 2.0 ports and two IEEE 1394 FireWire connectors (mounted front and back).

The Vaio PCV-RZ26G is packed with numerous other desirable amenities, including a VGA/DVI port for flat-panel displays, an S/PDIF out, two PS/2 ports, a pair of freestanding stereo speakers, and a handy Vaio Smart keyboard. Sony has not included a monitor, allowing you to use your current display or select from the many available choices.
