Why are Sony VIAOs alway so much money?

Usually they have crappy specs and are way more than other laptops by other brands with same specs.

1599$

Mobile Intel GM45 Express (Common they could have at least put a 9300M or something).

I don't know yet people still buy them. In terms of looks, they are good and they are reliable but try to play a game on them and you're going to be watching a slideshow. I agree they could have at least put a 9300m.

I guess it's the name.

Its the Sony brand name... As with everything Sony, they cost more for something which you can get a lot cheaper for the same product, but with a different brand

Take for example, alienware. They have very decent systems. But since they pride themselves on being the 'rolls-royce' of gaming, the 'rolls-royce' cost also comes into effect. Most times, there are similar gaming computers with the same specs for half the pric.
