“Inspiring Innovation • Persistent Perfection”

Over the past two decades, ASUS has developed a reputation for bringing truly innovative and high quality products to the consumer and commercial markets—a reputation built on many world’s firsts such as developing the world’s first ultra-mobile Internet device, the Eee PC™, producing the world’s first notebook capable of surviving the harsh conditions of the peak of Mount Everest, and setting the all-time record score in RESCUECOM’s Computer Reliability Report. Its new corporate slogan, “Inspiring Innovation • Persistent Perfection” encapsulates and pays tribute to these values, and restates more strongly than ever before that ASUS is committed to delivering innovative and reliable products for the new digital era.

A Showcase of Innovation at COMPUTEX 2009

At COMPUTEX 2009, ASUS has once again proved itself to be a beacon of innovation with a showcase of products that epitomize innovation and quality. Foremost of these are the ASUS UX30 notebook, the Eee PC™ Seashell and the ultra-slim MS Series display. The ASUS UX30, which is based on Intel’s consumer ultra low voltage (CULV) processor, offers the perfect balance of thinness, light weight and power. The Eee PC™ Seashell is an engineering marvel, a tangible testament to ASUS’ R&D capabilities. Featuring a tiny, custom-designed PCB, the Eee PC™ Seashell is easily the most compact and portable 10″ ultra-mobile Internet device on the market. The ultra-slim MS Series display boasts a cutting-edge design with a slim 19mm profile. Its alluring piano-black glossy front bezel and gleaming white rear bezel speaks its name as a digital art piece. The uniquely designed ring stand with Ergo-Fit Technology enables easy angle adjustment with just a single finger while maintaining perfect stability. The MS Series display features a highly power efficient LCD panel that yields greater power savings and utilizes less mercury, a realization of ASUS’ commitment to green computing.

Seamless Design for a Seamless Digital Life

ASUS’ vision of digital life is one that is seamlessly connected through the continuous, intelligent and transparent syncing of devices. Devices conforming to these new ‘Seamless Experience’ specifications would have the ability to detect the environment around the user and automatically make suitable changes to cater to the situation. This new ‘Seamless Experience’ concept is showcased at ASUS’ COMPUTEX 2009 booth: Booth no. M509A, Taipei World Trade Center Nangang Exhibition Hall 4F.
