Sony Vaio VGX-XL202 Media Center PC with Blu-ray Drive

@ 2006/10/18
This week sees the release of Blu-ray, the first of the next generation
high definition optical discs formats to hit the UK. The format is most
closely associated with Sony, but the first dedicated drive is actually
available from Samsung. Sony is not ignoring the launch of its own
format however. We've already looked at the impressive Vaio VGN-AR21S
notebook that features an integrated Blu-ray drive and now Sony has put
another Blu-ray notebook drive into it's latest desktop Media Center
system - the VGX-XL202. This is essentially the same as the VGX-XL201
but with the addition of the Blu-ray drive, for which you'll pay an
extra £800 – a hefty additional sum

£800 for a drive for where there pratically no media, no clue if it will succeed, and more expensive than the drive+gameconsole PS3. What's up with that
