This little laptop weighs 3.23 lbs and has a silver finish. As far as I can tell, it's also quite the looker. Sony has stuck with the sleek, relatively minimalistic design characteristic of its Vaio series—although, as you can see in the gallery below, the Y Series' touchpad looks a tad small. Perhaps I've been spoiled by MacBook touchpads, but I generally like something a little larger.
