Sony Intros Eco-Friendly Graphic Splash Eco Edition Vaio FZ Notebooks

Protecting the environment has become a very important issue nowadays and this is the reason why an increasingly higher number of consumer electronics manufacturers have begun to launch certain product lines meant to raise the level of awareness regarding this issue, not to mention the fact that they are built using eco-friendly materials. And the latest example of such a company is Sony, which has just launched the Graphic Splash Eco Edition series of Vaio FZ notebooks, which are available in four vibrant, natural styles, that will demonstrate the user's dedication to protecting the environment.

Thus, the new designs (Caribbean Water, Clay Earth, Spotted Life and Bloom) will set them apart from all the similar devices available on the market. Furthermore, in order to manifest its commitment to the protection of our environment, Sony will donate one percent of the price of each Graphic Splash Eco Edition notebook purchased to non-profit organizations working to preserve the environment via 1% For the Planet (www.onepercentfortheplanet.org/), an alliance of businesses committed to creating a healthier environment.

As the name says it, the Graphic Splash Eco Edition series are based on the Vaio FZ family of notebooks, which means that they are equipped with Intel Core 2 Duo T7250 CPUs, running at 2 GHz, include 2 GB of DDR2 RAM memory, 250GB HDDs and 15.4 WXGA LCD displays (to mention just the most important features).

As mentioned earlier, the new Graphic Splash Eco Edition series sets itself as an example of environment protection. Thus, the devices have a slim design for minimum use of natural resources, are manufactured from easy-to-recycle materials for resource conservation, their packaging is comprised primarily of recyclable materials, while all of the components are RoHS compliant.

The VAIO Graphic Splash Eco Edition notebooks will start at about $1,391 and will be available in limited quantities, starting early November, so if you want to protect the environment AND benefit from Sony's advanced technology, you should really hurry.
