Sony Vaio Z gets the in-house teardown treatment (video)

Another official teardown, another predictable revelation: the brand new Sony Vaio Z ‘s viscera are thinner, flatter and, er, more compressed than those of its predecessor. But a minimum of this dissection is performed by an exact Vaio engineer who need to know his stuff. Inside the video after the break, Shinji Oguchi explains how cooling was improved using various tricks, like aerating the laptop’s guts via holes within the keyboard. He also splits open the innovative external media dock, which connects via Intel’s Light Peak technology and uses a discrete GPU to offer the Vaio Z some gaming oomph. Finally, there is a separate, speeded-up video of Shinji putting the whole lot back together again from memory. The poor guy have to be sick of it by now.
