ASUS Once Again Proves Its Uncanny Ability to Meld Form, Function and Fashion in an Elegant yet Understated Netbook.
Since the introduction of the first Eee PC™, ASUS has inched high technology ever closer to high fashion. With the Eee PC™ Seashell Karim Rashid Collection (1008P), ASUS has taken a decisive leap onto the catwalk. Co-conceived by one of the world's leading designers, the Eee PC™ Seashell Karim Rashid Collection is the realization of Karim's vision of computing - one that is more sensual, more human, more hip. Completely contemporary and anathema to nostalgia, these netbooks are more daring, more intersecting, and are designed to appeal to young, mobile trendsetters while remaining an accessible luxury to everyone.
The Eee PC™ Seashell Karim Rashid Collection manifests ASUS' commitment to designing products that appeal to the five human senses, with an emphasis on vision and touch. To achieve this, ASUS' industrial designers have had to pioneer a plethora of material, production, and textural innovations, such as the combination of rubber paint, in mold roller (IMR), and metallic materials to create thoroughly unique finishes.
Karim's inspired touch is imbued in every inch of the Eee PC™ Seashell Karim Rashid Collection. It is encased from top to bottom in an organic Digi-Wave chassis that is as pragmatic as it is stylish - offering striking looks and robust protection. The rippling lines - which convey a sense of forward movement - adhere perfectly to the golden ratio, bearing testament to the extreme precision required to produce the subtle waves and retain colour consistency across the peaks and troughs. The in mold cutting was measured and tested with unprecedented precision by ASUS' designers, resulting in a gadget that boasts the prestige of a handcrafted product. The perfection of each wave can be perceived with the gentlest of touches.
The Eee PC™ Seashell Karim Rashid Collection reflects Karim and ASUS' view that function, material, form, performance, texture, color and ease-of-use are inseparable in any object of beauty. It is designed to stimulate all five human senses, including the sense of touch, which is often overlooked in the PC domain. The Eee PC™ Seashell Karim Rashid Collection thus sets itself apart from other netbooks through its innovative finishes that pamper users' palms and fingertips.
