Message	[ http://www.sonystyle.com/home/item.jsp?hierc=9683x9695&itemid=40695 ] I have an older Z505S SuperSlim Pro I bought a few years ago, it is just under one inch thick. 12.1" screen, built-in modem, ethernet, firewire, only 1 PC Card slot (PCMCIA), blah blah. Only "drawback" is like Genic said, all drives (floppy, CDROM, etc) have to be connected or on a docking station. Even my COM ports and parallel ports are on a seperate breakaway module. But nowadays, everything is USB so I could care less (USB is still on the main computer) I rarely use a CD-ROM or Floppy so it was OK with me.
