The ASUS W2 is a 17" wide-screen notebook and powerful multimedia system. It is designed for people who need a big screen working environment that is easy to carry around. The W2 delivers not only “on the edge” computing features, but also features high quality audio and multi-media performance. The surprisingly light notebook can be used in the office, in SOHO environments, at home – anywhere. Its large wide-screen allows users to work conveniently with different programs at the same time on one screen. The unique combination of brushed aluminium, clean touchpad and integrated instant-key design eliminates visual distractions from work and entertainment usage. Audio and video functions are readily available without booting the OS to allow seamless integration in working and living environments.
