But not all Vaio's. My z600 (which is what they sold the z505 series as in .eu)
for example behaves correctly when I plug in/pull out the power cord
repeatedly.

We might be better off special casing 'known bad' models in the
DMI blacklist instead of assuming carte blanche that all vaio's are bad.
Might even come down to a specific BIOS version that's at fault.
