The Sony Vaio 505 (called SuperSlim until 2003) series was a line of ultraportable notebook computers from Sony 's VAIO brand. The introduction date in the United States was July 24, 1998. Hardware specifications at introduction were a 200 MHz ($2000) or 266 MHz ($2700) Pentium MMX CPU, 32 MB RAM, a 2.1 GB hard drive, 10.4" SVGA (800×600) screen, integrated sound, modem , speakers, microphone, PC-Card slot, and optional Firewire port. It also featured a touchpad with additional pen ( graphics tablet ) functionality. The weight was 3.1 lbs (1.4 kg). In addition to the 10.4" models, a 12.1" 505 Superslim Pro was introduced in April 1999, weighing 3.75 lbs (1.7 kg), and featuring 1024×768 screen. Starting from the R505 revision (2001), the laptops were supplied with a docking station with integrated CDRW / DVD drive. From R505D onwards, 802.11b wireless was integrated. The V505 models increased weight and thickness due to the integration of the DVD drive; they were no longer branded 'superslim', as thickness increased from 1 to 1.33", and weight to 4.37 lbs (2 kg). A one-off X505 model [ 1 ] was produced in 2004, with the same screen size (10.4") and 1024×768 resolution as the 1999 models, but with a greatly reduced weight of only 1.73 lbs (822 grams). The case was made with a nickel-carbon alloy . Connectivity was provided by a Fast Ethernet port, unlike previous models, no modem was included, and neither was 802.11 wireless or Bluetooth . The Sony VAIO X series , launched in 2009, had many design similarities with this product, although an Intel Atom -series processor was used.
