Lamborghini Series Laptops by ASUS

Just thought some people would find this quite interesting, i ran across it while i was going to my motherboards site to get the SATA drivers... So it seems as though ASUS is officially making Lamborghini Series laptops and they look pretty nice, i just dont know how well they would perform. Why couldnt the executive board have chosen a better manufactuer for their laptop, thats my only question

check it out, browse the links, its looks pretty sweet, IMO

Shucky you now just heard of this ??? it was announced that they were going to make a Lamborgini for a long time. I saw this thing in a newegg ad 1.5 months ago.
They ditched the small 1" screen on the outter corner which stinks really.

Yeah it's old news that they were going to make it, and it has been available (barely) for about a month now.

It's basically the same as the V6J (which I just got ) but has a nice yellow lid and costs $1000 more.

(I want that lid right now because I got mine all scratched up the day after I got it )

Are you saying Asus is not a good manufacturer???
Asus is one of the best ODM's and their laptops are quite sleek.

my friend had a sleek and slim asus laptop and he always had the problem of it overheating... whenevr he gamed or did work on it for an extended period of time he had to put it on a cooling tray... If im mis-informed please let me know i always thought of them as inferior to the bigger ones (compaq/hp, dell, sony, etc)

None of those companies make laptops.
