ASUS introduces the new UX series – with design in focus

Stockholm June 3rd  2009 –  
ASUS introduces the new UX notebook series with form and design in focus. The most eye-catching feature about the UX notebooks is the ultra slim, lightweight profile and its glossy piano finish which gives an exclusive look. While most thin and light notebooks have a problem of scaled back functionality, the UX-series promises an exquisitely crafted, thin and lightweight notebook that takes away nothing in terms of functionality so you can be sure to use it for all your daily computing needs. A notebook from ASUS UX series is an exquisitely designed accessory for the style conscious professional who seeks to complement their personality with an exclusive notebook.
The slot-in ODD, the shimmering glitters on the LCD cover as well as the backlighting of the illuminated keyboard and the interactive touchpad all reflect ASUS’ attention to detail.

Design with functionality
The UX series offers crisp and vibrant images with its energy efficient LED-backlit display, powered by a NVIDIA® GeForce® G 105M which offers spectacular graphics, stunning clarity and effortless mobility. Altec Lansing speakers featuring SRS Premium Sound™ gives you exceptional audio reproduction. The UX series is also equipped with Intel® ULV (ultra low voltage) processor which gives a longer battery time making UX series the perfect travel mate, whether it’s for business trip or pleasure.
