Sony’s new W series eco-friendly netbooks were showcased during the recent 2010 International Consumer Electronics Show, on January 6, in Las Vegas, Nevada. Vaio W Series netbooks have chassis made of plastic consisting of about 20 percent recycled compact disks and will be shipped in a “stylish reusable” carrying cases made from recycled plastic bottles.
“The W series is so green it doesn’t have a printed manual,” Sony president Stan Glasgow said while unveiling the line at the Consumer Electronics Show. “Sony is out to lower the power consumption of products and greenhouse gas emissions at its facilities.”
Vaio W series machines were billed by Sony as ideal “secondary” personal computers for light tasks, Internet browsing, and online social networking. The netbooks have high-definition, 10.1-inch screens and hard drives with 250GB of storage.
