Sony Vaio Signature Collection notebooks - with fake crocodile skin finish

Classy or cheesy? We'll let you make your own mind up on the Sony Vaio Signature Collection notebooks.

The series itself isn't completely tacky, there are some pretty smart high gloss finishes for matching up your computer with your home office, but we're drawn towards the CS390, which goes for that fake crocodile skin finish with metallic trim that looks (to us) like a cheap handbag off the market - although if Sony sent us one, I'm sure we could offer a more reasoned view.

Only the US for these right now, with prices starting at $749.99 (around £450), which seems pretty reasonable for a decent notebook, especially if you love fake croc.
