Another Sleek Asus Computer


Asus V6800V

With the launch of the V6800V, Asus claims it has produced the world's thinnest and lightest 15 inch laptop. It is just 0.9 inches thick and slips in at a proportionately bulimic 4lbs. or so.

The V6800V doesn't appear to be wanting for power either despite its waifish lines as it is based on the Sonoma edition of the Centrino chipset and therefore supports such recent notebook innovations as DDR2 RAM, PCI Express and SATA hard drives.

The fully customisable spec will feature processors beginning at 1.73GHz and hard drives at 60GB. At the top of the food chain you can crank up the clock past 2GHz and somehow Asus can squeeze in a 100GB hard drive (if you can afford the upgrade).

Both Sony and Apple had better watch out as it looks like Asus has finally started to understand the form and function combination that many of us seek.
