The Sony VAIO TT Series is a business oriented laptop that is designed for travel. It weighs only 2.9 pounds, making it light and easy to carry, and comes with a standard battery that can last from 4.5 to 7.5 hours, way more than other laptops in the VAIO line. At production, it was the smallest Blue-ray Disc notebook, with the 11.1" frame incorporating the high definition quality of the usually immobile technology. The Sony VAIO TT Series comes with an optional downgrade for Windows XP Professional, so the consumer does not have to get the newest Microsoft operating system. The laptop has an Energy Star 4.0 rating and the packaging is made of 30%-90% recycled content depending on the manufacturing location.
