Vaio - Too hot to handle?

Saw an advert for Vaio laptops (at least I think that was what it was). The front page of the "Southern Courier" shows a really green grassy field (which given this is Australia) must have been absolutely sodden to get the grass that green). There is a bloke (probably a bloke) walking offpage to the right so that he is only partially visible. He is holding a Vaio. Where he was sitting in the grass, the grass is sort of dead and crushed and even a bit burnt in colour.
Does this mean: "Our batteries last so long that the grass around you will grow 6 inches before you need a recharge"?

I can think of other possibilities:
- Our laptop is so hot it will not only burn you but the grass as well....
- Running anything under windows will take so long on this laptop that the grass will grow before the application opens ...
- Rip Van Winkle probably used a Vaio ...

I will try to post a copy of the picture, In the meantime, why not add your suggestions below in the comments?

Vaio is a PC laptop. Normally used for running Windows. May also run various versions of Linux. Not AFAIK a leading brand in Australia (Toshiba and Dell are probably the major players).

Vaio Revisited The story the other day about the Vaio was missing the picture because I had loaned my scanner to a worthy cause (the all new, bestest, most secretest upgrade to another site). Thanks Pete for scanning this:...
