Ride On ASUS-Lamborghini VX1

It’s not new that sports car craze motivated laptop’s design; we had seen Acer’s Ferrari series. Now Asus come up with another legend in sport’s car industry, Italian Lamborghini featured in its latest laptop series. ASUS-Lamborghini VX1 is an extreme and spectacular expression of the ASUS and Lamborghini spirit that, with the look alone, exudes power, speed, strength and beauty. ASUS-Lamborghini VX1 powered by Intel Centrino Duo Mobile Technology. The dual-core processing capabilities of the VX1 offers

desktop level computing performance such as faster processing and high quality video/ audio enjoyment while enabling high mobility and better productivity with smaller form factor and longer battery life. The 15" VX1, weighing less than most of the 14" notebooks, is a powerful work machine with superior mobility. These are just few to mention among its powerful bunch of features. Personally I am impressed by this, never expected this kind of powerful computing standard from ASUS. Not to mention the looks, when I hold my first test VX1, I was feeling like touching Lamborghini itself. As you can tell I am totally stoned by the looks and performance, let’s take pick what’s with this baby:-

And looks like it’s a Widows Vista Ready system.

I love the hold idea of being powerful and beautiful, but some of the crucial features were missing which could have made it more adorable. But you have to agree very few laptop/portable computer offer 2 GB of memory along with Bluetooth and Memory card reader feature. My test ASUS-Lamborghini VX1 notebook cost around US$3k, but now some of the online store is selling it bellows US$2.7K. I have to agree that if you like something like mix of power and beauty, ASUS-Lamborghini VX1 won’t disappoint you at all.
