Delegates to this Berlin IDF have been given the conference data electronically, on a "USB Stick" which you can hang around your neck. And some have been given the loan of a Sony Vaio Centrino notebook, too, to try out how wonderful it is.

Delegates to this Berlin IDF have been given the conference data electronically, on a "USB Stick" which you can hang around your neck. And some have been given the loan of a Sony Vaio Centrino notebook, too, to try out how wonderful it is.

<1/> Beautiful design ...

So you can imagine the howls of joy from the rest of them, when the smug ones with the Vaio PCG-Z1SP tried to plug in their USB Sticks and discovered a "feature" of the Vaio design.

The first picture shows you how nice the Vaio looks with its wavy-line aluminium "lip" along the side.

And our second picture shows the Hunky Mouse trying to plug his USB Stick into the USB socket on the Vaio; and we have deleted the sound track, in the interests of good taste.

<1/> It doesn't fit, does it, Boss?
