Sony Unveils Sexy Home PC

Not content with dominating the world’s living rooms with Playstation consoles, Sony’s taking a stab at the living room PC market too.

The company has taken the wraps off a designer Vaio PC that looks nothing like your typical PC. Resembling Sonyvaiotp3 something Apple might design, the cake-shaped Vaio VGX-TP1 is 27cm wide and 9cm high and weighs less than 4Kg.

It connects to a HDTV using a HDMI cable to allow users to watch high definition content. The system runs Windows Vista Home Premium and comes with a remote control and wireless keyboard. It will offer an optional digital tuner for receiving TV, which can be recorded onto the internal 500GB hard disk drive. Sadly, and oddly, there is no Blu-ray drive.

The Japanese are getting it first and a US version is due out in March with a price tag of around £800. Needless to say it will more expensive when it launches here later on in 2007.
